Tivoli Storage Manager for UNIX Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User's Guide

Query Filespace

The query filespace command displays a list of file spaces for a node stored on the server. A file space is a logical space on the server that contains files you backed up or archived. Tivoli Storage Manager assigns a separate file space on the server for each file system at your workstation from which you back up or archive files. The file space name is the same as the file system name.

Querying NAS File Spaces

Use the nasnodename option to identify the NAS file server to query. When using an interactive command line session with a non-administrative ID, Tivoli Storage Manager prompts for an administrator ID. Place the nasnodename option in your client system options file dsm.sys. The value in the client system options file is the default, but this value can be overridden on the command line. If the nasnodename option is not specified in the client system options file, it must be specified on the command line when processing NAS file systems. See Nasnodename for more information.

Use the class option to specify the class of the object to query. To display a list of file spaces belonging to a NAS node, use the -class=nas option. Using the default, -class=client, will not change the current query filespace behavior. See Class for more information.
