Tivoli Storage Manager for Windows Quick Start
The Tivoli Storage Manager server and the Server Utilities are
installed by the procedure described in this chapter. During server
initialization, a default administrative client and backup-archive client are
installed and registered with the server as described in Table 2. For later use, you should note these IDs and passwords.

During the installation procedure, you select one of the following types of
installation: TYPICAL, COMPACT, or CUSTOM. Table 3 shows the difference between TYPICAL, which is recommended
for most customers, and COMPACT. CUSTOM allows you to select and
install any components.
The installation system requirements are:
- Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000. For Windows NT 4,
service pack 4 (NT SP4 or later) is recommended.
- A workstation that has at least 130MB of free disk storage (for a typical
installation) and 64MB of memory (128MB is recommended).
- A CD-ROM device if you are installing from a CD-ROM.

| If you intend to configure Tivoli Storage Manager in a Windows server
cluster, there are steps you should take before you install the Tivoli Storage
Manager servers on the cluster node machines. See Chapter 2, Performing the Initial Configuration for details.
|
Before you install, ensure that you are logged on to Windows with a user
name having administrator authority.
Do the following:
- Insert the TSM CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. The setup program
automatically starts (autorun) after you load the CD-ROM. If autorun is
disabled, double-click on setup.exe in the CD root
directory.
- Read the Welcome dialog and click Next. The
Information dialog appears.
- Click the Read Me First button, read the information, and then
click Next. The Choose Destination Location
dialog appears.
- The default root directory for Tivoli Storage Manager is \Program
Files\Tivoli\TSM. To choose a different installation
directory, click the Browse button. The directory that you
choose becomes the root directory. Either accept the default or choose
another location, and then click Next. The Setup
Type dialog appears.
- Select a setup type (the default is Typical). See Table 3 for a description of the Typical and Compact installation
options. Click Next. The Select Program
Folder dialog appears.
- The default program folder is Tivoli Storage Manager.
Click Next to accept the default, or enter a new name, or click one
of the Existing Folder options, and then click
Next. The Start Copying Files dialog
appears.
- Review the current settings and click Next. The progress
dialog appears showing the files installation process. When the process
completes, a Setup Complete dialog appears.
- Choose whether to restart the computer now or later, and then
click Finish. If you choose to restart your computer later,
Read Me information is displayed.
Note: | We recommend that you restart the computer. When you restart the
computer, Windows recognizes the TSM device driver and includes TSM in event
logging.
Also, the Server Utilities dialog appears so that you can immediately perform
an initial configuration of your TSM server. See Chapter 2, Performing the Initial Configuration for details.

If you have problems starting the server after installation, go to your
server instance directory, for example tivoli\tsm\server1, and
check the initserv.log file for error statements:
If you cannot fix the problem and contact technical support, you may be
asked for these files for problem determination.
The default installation directories have changed for Tivoli Storage Manager
Version 3.7. If you have previously used Disaster Recovery
Manager (DRM) to create a disaster recovery plan file, that file refers to
path names that may no longer be valid. After you have installed Tivoli
Storage Manager, you should back up your storage pools and database and create
a new disaster recovery plan file. For the sequence and details of the
procedure, see the "Using Tivoli Disaster Recovery Manager" chapter in
the Administrator's Guide.

The following will happen when the Server Initialization Wizard
runs:
|
You may wish to install multiple Tivoli Storage Manager servers on a single
machine. This is necessary if you are configuring in a cluster.
You may also want to run more than one server on a large machine if you have
multiple tape libraries or a disk-only configuration. Use the Server
Initialization wizard to install multiple Tivoli Storage Manager servers on a
single machine (see Initializing the Server for details).
Table 3 contains a comparison of the Typical and Compact
installation types. Table 4 shows the components that are installed for all installation
types when you run the Server Initialization wizard (see Initializing the Server for details).
