The device configuration file for the storage agent includes information on the storage agent itself and information about the TSM server with which the storage agent communicates. The file is typically named devconfig and is located with the storage agent program as follows: For AIX, the location is /usr/tivoli/tsm/StorageAgent/bin. The DSMSTA SETSTORAGESERVER command normally generates the contents of the file. If you have changes to the TSM server or if a service representative directs you, you may need to make changes to the information. You can use the DSMSTA SETSTORAGESERVER command to add information to the file.
Typical contents of the device configuration file are as follows:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |SET STANAME iris | |SET STAPASSWORD xxxxxxx | |SET STAHLADDRESS arbor.tucson.tivoli.com | |DEFINE SERVER garden serverpassword=botanical | | HLADDRESS=garden.tucson.tivoli.com LLADDRESS=1500 | | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
In this example, IRIS is the name of the storage agent and GARDEN is the name of the TSM server.
Typical contents of the device configuration file for an ACSLS-managed library environment are as follows:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |SET STANAME iris | |SET STAPASSWORD xxxxxxx | |SET STAHLADDRESS arbor.tucson.tivoli.com | |DEFINE SERVER garden serverpassword=botanical | | HLADDRESS=garden.tucson.tivoli.com LLADDRESS=1500 | |DEFINE LIBRARY stk-lib libtype=external lanfree=yes obeymountretention=yes | | EXTERNALMANAGER=/usr/lpp/dtelm/bin/elm | | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
In this example, IRIS is the name of the storage agent, GARDEN is the name of the TSM server, and STK-LIB is the name of the ACSLS-managed library.
The following describes the contents of the file:
