Tim, You'll need to possibly export your display and then the executable for the GUI is dsm instead of dsmc. Thanks, Mooney -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Tim Brown Sent: Thursday, June 02, 2011 8:35 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.E

We configure our linux machines to use run level 3 only and configure the "managedservices" option in the client options file. This enables you to use the web GUI interface from a browser, remote or locally. Page 308 in the 5.5 BA user guide. Hope this helps... ~Rick -Original Message- F

Hello all, We are contemplating a massive Active Domain reorganization which would involve renaming hundreds of Windows machines that we backup into TSM. We forsee a few problems with this, and I am looking to see if any other TSM sites have faced a similar problem and what they did to address

We have on occasion created a batch job that runs on the TSM servers that users can feed a few parameters to then have our operations group run it through the enterprise scheduler. This allows a user to run a command of higher privilege but still be under control. Also the users may have the j
