Tivoli Storage Manager for Windows: Administrator's Guide


Updating the Password for Scheduling Operations

Administrators determine passwords when they register nodes. For nodes and host servers that run Windows, one more step is required. Administrators must update passwords by using the TSM Scheduler Configuration Utility (DSMCUTIL). This utility allows administrators to store TSM passwords in the NT registry. Once a password is stored in the registry, the TSM scheduler can run as a protected account under its own authority. If the password expires, TSM automatically generates a new password. For example, to specify that TSM provide a new password if the current password expires, remove the comment (asterisk character) from the following line in the client options file.

     * passwordaccess generate
