7. Configuring TSM Servers


Any TSM server, and any number of TSM servers may be configured for use by SBAdmin TSM Edition. This is
not limited by the number of client licenses installed. In addition, a single physical TSM server may be accessed
using different TSM server configurations. For example, one server (tsmserver-comp) may be configured to
backup data using TSM compression, while the same server (tsmserver-nocomp) may be configured to backup
without using data compression.

Adding a TSM Server

A new server may be added to the system by either:

1. Selecting

Configure

!Servers

from the menu bar, or

2. Pressing

the

Add Server

button at the bottom of the

Main Screen

when

Clients & Servers

are

displayed.

After doing so, a screen similar to the following will be displayed:

You should refer to your TSM documentation for information on the additional fields which are normally
specified in your TSM system user options (dsm.sys) file. You may use the right-arrow button over any field to
show the QuickHelp information on each field, so information is not detailed here. However, there are some
special considerations:

TSM Server Name

You can call the server anything you like, since it is the entry in the TCPServeraddress field, not the server
name, which determines how the server will be contacted. You can also configure multiple servers, each
with a different name, that use the same TCPServeraddress entry.
