Storix System Backup Administrator 11 Version 8.2 TSM Edition User Guide
Starting the Software
There are three user-interfaces available for performing SBAdmin operations:
1. Graphical-User (Xwindows) interface (GUI) - This is the interface described in this user guide.
To access the graphical user interface, also referred as the “ backup administrator ”, type:
sbadmin
from within an xterm window. If you wish to run the application on a display attached to a different host
(perhaps even a PC running an Xwindows emulator), type:
sbadmin –display hostname:0 &
(where hostname is the host name of the remote system). It may also be necessary to provide access to
the application to write to the display by first typing “xhost +” within an xterm window on the remote
system.
When starting the administrator software, the
Main Screen will appear.
2. Web-based interface – This interface is accessed through a web browser and is designed to be similar in
use and function to the GUI interface. You must have enabled the web interface when installing the
software on the Administrator System. Refer to the
SBAdmin Web Interface Install Guide for additional
details on installing, configuring and starting this interface.
3. Command-line Interface (CLI) – This refers to running commands provided with this software at the shell
prompt. Commands may only be run when logged on as the root user, or another user already configured
using the GUI or Web interface. Various commands may be run on the administrator or client system. Refer
to the
SBAdmin Commands Reference for details.
Enabling Optional Features
The optional feature, Backup Data Encryption , may be enabled after the TSM Edition has been installed. To
enable this feature, select File !Preferences!Software License from the menu bar on the Main Screen . Refer
to Software License in the Preferences section for details on viewing and changing the license options.
Initial TSM Setup
TSM Server
The TSM Server software must be at level 5.2 or later. Refer to the TSM documentation for instructions on
checking and updating the TSM server.
SBAdmin Management Class
Before any backup may be performed to TSM, you must define a new management class on the TSM
server called SBADMIN. All SBAdmin backups will be stored under this management class. The
management class must be defined to disallow versioning of backup objects. The management class must
be created using the TSM Integrated Solutions Console or using the following command within dsmadmc:
DEFINE MGMTCLASS domain_name policy_set SBADMIN
