default

value

of

0

prevents

examining

client

sessions

for

insufficient

throughput.

Throughput

is

computed

by

adding

send

and

receive

byte

counts

and

dividing

by

the

length

of

the

session.

The

length

does

not

include

time

spent

waiting

for

media

mounts

and

starts

at

the

time

a

client

sends

data

to

the

server

for

storage.

The

minimum

value

is

0;

the

maximum

is

99999999.

THROUGHPUTTimethreshold

minutes

Specifies

the

threshold

for

examining

client

sessions

and

cancelling

them

if

the

data

throughput

threshold

is

not

met

(see

THROUGHPUTDatathreshold).

This

threshold

does

not

include

time

spent

waiting

for

media

mounts.

The

time

threshold

starts

when

a

client

begins

sending

data

to

the

server

for

storage

(as

opposed

to

setup

or

session

housekeeping

data).

The

default

value

of

200

prevents

examining

client

sessions

for

low

throughput.

The

minimum

value

is

0;

the

maximum

is

99999999.

USELARGEBUFFERS

yes|no

Specifies

that

large

buffers

are

used

for

client-server

communications.

The

default

of

yes

specifies

that

large

buffers

are

used;

no

specifies

that

they

are

not

used.

The

Device

Configuration

File

for

the

Storage

Agent

The

device

configuration

file

for

the

storage

agent

includes

information

on

the

storage

agent

and

information

about

the

Tivoli

Storage

Manager

server

with

which

the

storage

agent

communicates.

The

file

is

typically

named

devconfig

and

resides

with

the

storage

agent

program

at

this

location:

/usr/tivoli/tsm/StorageAgent/

bin.

The

DSMSTA

SETSTORAGESERVER

command

normally

generates

the

contents

of

the

file,

and

you

can

also

use

the

command

to

add

information

to

the

file.

Typical

contents

of

the

device

configuration

file

are

as

follows:

SET

STANAME

storagnt

SET

STAPASSWORD

fun4me

SET

STAHLADDRESS

agent.tucson.ibm.com

DEFINE

SERVER

tsmsrver

serverpassword=not4u

HLADDRESS=tsmsrver.tucson.ibm.com

LLADDRESS=1502

In

this

example,

storagnt

is

the

name

of

the

storage

agent

and

tsmserver

is

the

name

of

the

Tivoli

Storage

Manager

server.

The

following

describes

the

contents

of

the

file:

SET

STANAME

Sets

the

name

of

the

storage

agent.

The

name

must

be

the

same

as

the

name

that

was

used

to

define

the

storage

agent

as

a

server

to

the

Tivoli

Storage

Manager

server.

SET

STAPASSWORD

Sets

the

password

of

the

storage

agent.

The

password

must

be

the

same

as

the

password

that

was

used

when

defining

the

storage

agent

as

a

server

to

the

Tivoli

Storage

Manager

server.

The

password

is

encrypted.

SET

STAHLADDRESS

Sets

the

TCP/IP

address

of

the

storage

agent.
