Quick Start


Installing Tivoli Storage Manager

The following procedure installs the server, device support, server utilities, HP-UX backup-archive client and administrative command line client, HP-UX application programming interface (API), and on-line books. You can install these selections one at a time, several at a time, or all together.

The default clients are registered with the following defaults:

Client Name Password
Administrative admin admin
Backup-archive client client

See Installing the Clients for information on installing the administrative and backup-archive clients on platforms other than HP-UX. The clients for other platforms can be installed directly from the CD-ROM. If a CD-ROM drive is not available to the client platform, the files can be copied to a file server and distributed.

The default installation directories are:

To install Tivoli Storage Manager:

  1. Log in as the root user.

  2. Insert the TSM Server Installation CD-ROM into a CD-ROM drive. The following discussion assumes that the CD-ROM is mounted on directory /cdrom.

  3. See the README file on the CD-ROM for late-breaking news on installing the TSM server and client.

  4. Use the SWINSTALL command in non-interactive or interactive mode.

    1. To install non-interactively: Enter the following command and continue at step 13:
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      |swinstall -s /cdrom <filesetname>                                               |
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

      Where <filesetname> is one or more fileset names listed in Table 2.

      Note:To install all server and client files, specify: TIVsm.

    2. To install in interactive mode: Enter the following command and continue at step 5:
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      |swinstall -s /cdrom                                                             |
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  5. Select Options from the menu. In the Change Options box, review the installation options and change any that are required for your particular installation.

  6. At the Software Selection Screen, select the TSM product or products you require:
    Note:Clients other than the HP-UX backup-archive and administrative clients are installed on their respective platforms from the client installation CD-ROMs. If no CD-ROM drive is available to the client platform, the files can be copied to a file server and distributed. Refer to Installing the Clients for information on these installations.

  7. From the Actions pull-down menu, select Mark for Install.

  8. From the Actions pull-down menu, select Install.

  9. Select Logfile to view the log for messages.

  10. Select OK.

  11. Select YES to begin installing.

  12. When the message appears indicating that the installation is complete, select Done.

  13. When the installation is finished, review the logfile again for any new messages, then remove the CD from the drive.

  14. Select Exit from the File menu to leave the installation program and return to the system prompt.

  15. To use the administrative web interface and load the definition file, issue this command:
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    | dsmserv runfile dsmserv.idl                                                    |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

    Notes:

    1. You must have at least 4MB of available database to run the DSMSERV RUNFILE DSMSERV.IDL command.

    2. Your browser must have Java 1.1 support.

    3. To use the administrative web interface, the fileset ADSM.WEBADMIN must first be installed. This subcomponent includes the dsmserv.idl file and all of the image files needed to use the administrative web interface. This fileset is installed with the server if the entire server program is installed ('swinstall ADSM').

    4. You must also configure the HTTP communication method in your dsmserv.opt server options file to use this interface. The HTTP communication method uses the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      |commmethod          http                                                        |
      |   httpport         1580                                                        |
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  16. TSM is shipped with sample command scripts that can be loaded into the database and run from an TSM administrative client, administrative web interface, or server console. They can also be included in TSM administrative command schedules. The sample scripts, in scripts.smp, are primarily SELECT queries, but also include scripts that define volumes for and extend the database and recovery log and that backup storage pools.

    To load the sample scripts into the TSM database, issue the following command:

    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    |dsmserv runfile scripts.smp                                                     |
    +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  17. If you have loaded the HP-UX client, you must now configure TSM to work with it:

    1. Change to the /opt/tivoli/tsm/client directory and create the client system options file from the sample options file:
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      |cd /opt/tivolitsm/client                                                        |
      |cp dsm.sys.smp dsm.sys                                                          |
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

    2. Edit the client system options file (dsm.sys) to identify the server and the shared memory communication method:
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      |servername tsm                                                                  |
      |commmethod sharedmem                                                            |
      |shmport 1510                                                                    |
      |tcpserveraddress hermes                                                         |
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

      The options file is neither case-sensitive nor white space-sensitive.

    3. From the /opt/tivoli/tsm/client directory, create the client user options file from the sample options file:
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      |cp dsm.opt.smp dsm.opt                                                          |
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

    4. Edit the client user options file (dsm.opt) to identify the server and the client node. This is the backup-archive client registered as CLIENT during the TSM installation:
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
      |servername tsm                                                                  |
      |virtualnodename client                                                          |
      +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

      The options file is neither case-sensitive nor white space-sensitive.

If you have installed all of the components you need for your facility, continue at Verifying Your Installation.
