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

Setting API Environmental Variables

If you have installed the Tivoli Storage Manager client API, set the following environment variables:

DSMI_DIR
Points to your installation directory. The files dsmtca, dsm.sys, and the language files must reside in the directory pointed to by DSMI_DIR. This environment variable must be present.

DSMI_CONFIG
Full path name of your own client user options file (dsm.opt).

DSMI_LOG
Path for dsmerror.log. (cannot be a symbolic link)
Note:
End users of applications developed with the API should consult the installation directions for that application for special path names or guidelines for options. Ensure that directories in the environment variables are specified in the path statement. The location of the API library is especially important.
