Tivoli Storage Manager Using the Application Program Interface
The Tivoli Storage Manager API supports cross-platform
interoperability. Applications on a UNIX system can operate on
filespaces and objects that are backed up from a Windows system, or from a
Windows system to a UNIX system.
To achieve interoperability, perform the following setup tasks:
- Establish a consistent naming convention. Select a character for
the dir delimiter and place it in front of the filespace name, the high-level
qualifier, and the low-level qualifier.
- When calling dsmInitEx, set the value of the
dirDelimiter field to the character that you selected; for
example, /or \.
- Set the useUnicode flag to bFalse when you use the TSM
interface, Unicode filenames and non-Unicode filenames. Do not
interoperate.
