About this publication
IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager is a client/server licensed product that providesstorage management services in a multiplatform computer environment.
The backup-archive client program enables users to back up and archive files fromtheir workstations or file servers to storage, and restore and retrieve backupversions and archived copies of files to their local workstations.
In addition to the backup-archive client, Tivoli Storage Manager includes thefollowing components:v A server program that acts as a backup and archive server for distributed
workstations and file servers.The server program also supplies hierarchical storage management (HSM)services, and enables systems to perform as a migration server.
v An administrative client program that you can access from a web browser orfrom the command line. The program enables a Tivoli Storage Manageradministrator to control and monitor server activities, define storagemanagement policies for backup, archive, and space management services, andset up schedules to perform those services at regular intervals.
v An application programming interface (API) that you can use to enhance anexisting application with storage management services. When an application isregistered with a server as a client node, the application can back up, restore,archive, and retrieve objects from storage.
v A web backup-archive client that enables an authorized administrator, help deskperson, or other users to perform backup, restore, archive, and retrieve servicesby using a web browser on a remote system.
Associated with Tivoli Storage Manager, but sold separately, are the Tivoli StorageManager for Space Management and Tivoli Storage Manager HSM for Windowsclient programs. These products automatically migrate eligible files to storage tomaintain specific levels of free space on local file systems and automatically recallmigrated files when they are accessed. It also enables users to migrate and recallspecific files.
The terms hierarchical storage management and space management have the samemeaning throughout this publication.Related concepts:“Planning your backups” on page 139“New for Tivoli Storage Manager Version 7.1.4” on page xviiChapter 1, “Installing the Tivoli Storage Manager backup-archive clients,” on page1

Chapter 1. Installing the Tivoli Storage Managerbackup-archive clients
The IBM Tivoli Storage Manager backup-archive client helps you protectinformation on your workstations.
You can maintain backup versions of your files that you can restore if the originalfiles are damaged or lost. You can also archive infrequently used files, preservethem in their current state, and retrieve them when necessary.
The Tivoli Storage Manager clients work in conjunction with the Tivoli StorageManager server. Contact your Tivoli Storage Manager server administrator toobtain backup or archive access to the server, or refer to the server publications toinstall and configure a Tivoli Storage Manager server.Related concepts:“New for Tivoli Storage Manager Version 7.1.4” on page xvii“Planning your backups” on page 139
Upgrading the backup-archive clientThe following sections explain what you need to do if you are upgrading to IBMTivoli Storage Manager backup-archive client Version 7.1.4 from a previous version.
Upgrade path for clients and serversTivoli Storage Manager clients and servers can be upgraded at different times. Thecombination of servers and clients that you deploy must be compatible with eachother.
To prevent disruption of your backup and archive activities while you upgradefrom one release to another, follow the compatibility guidelines for Tivoli StorageManager clients and servers in technote 1053218.
For information about upgrading your current AIX® IBM PowerHA®
SystemMirror® setups, see “Migrating legacy AIX IBM PowerHA SystemMirrorsetups” on page 103.
Additional upgrade informationWhen you upgrade a Tivoli Storage Manager client, there is additional informationto consider before you use the new client software.
Be aware of the following information when you upgrade a backup-archive client:v If you are upgrading from a Tivoli Storage Manager Version 7.1.2 or earlier
backup-archive client on the HP-UX, Linux, or Oracle Solaris operating system,you must uninstall any previously installed language packages before youproceed with the upgrade.
v For Mac users, updates to the Mac OS X client contained in Tivoli StorageManager 6.3, or newer versions, require you to consider the following items:– When you use the Mac OS X client that is provided in this release, ensure
that the dsm.sys and dsm.opt files are encoded by using Unicode (UTF-8).UTF-8 encoding enables the use of characters from any language in the
© Copyright IBM Corp. 1993, 2015 1
http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21053218
-
options files. If your dsm.sys or dsm.opt files were previously encoded asMacRoman (or anything other than UTF-8), open them in an editor likeTextEdit and save them with UTF-8 encoding, and without the .txtextension. Your include-exclude lists can be encoded as either UTF-8 orUTF-16. For more information about using Unicode, see “Considerations forUnicode-enabled clients” on page 408.
– Tivoli Storage Manager server file spaces that were created by Mac OS 9clients cannot be managed by the Mac OS X client that was provided in TivoliStorage Manager V6.3. Use q file node f=d on the server to list files storedfor a node. Any Mac-platform files that do not start with a slash (/) wereprobably created by an older Mac client. You cannot restore or otherwisemanage these files by using the Mac OS X client that is provided in thisrelease. You can manage these files, but you must use a Mac client that isinstalled on a Tivoli Storage Manager V6.2.2 (or older) node.
v For a list of new and changed messages since the previous Tivoli StorageManager release, see the client_message.chg file in the client package.
Automatic backup-archive client deploymentThe Tivoli Storage Manager server administrator can automatically deploy abackup-archive client to workstations that already have the backup-archive clientinstalled.
When you schedule automatic Backup-Archive client deployments, the updatedclient packages (which include the client components and the API library) areinstalled on the workstations that receive them. A dependency check is performedby the client installation program to ensure that the API library does not conflictwith the client package that is already installed.
Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP applications do not use the same installationtechnology that is used by the client installation program. Because of that, theclient installation dependency check is not able to detect whether the API librarythat is being used by the Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP applications iscompatible with the API library that will be installed by automatic clientdeployments. If a client package is automatically deployed to and installed on aworkstation, the API library that is installed might not be compatible with the APIlibrary that was installed by the Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP application. Thenewly deployed API library can cause the Tivoli Storage Manager for ERPapplications to fail.
Do not schedule automatic client deployments to workstations that have a TivoliStorage Manager for ERP application installed on them.
The Tivoli Storage Manager server can be configured to automatically upgradebackup-archive clients on supported Linux and UNIX systems. The existing clientsmust be at version 5.5 or later.
Important: For automatic client deployment to be operational, the followingconditions apply:v The client computer must have the minimum free disk space as shown in
Table 1.
Table 1. Minimum disk space needed for automatic client deployment
Operating systems Free disk space required
AIX 1500 MB

HP-UX 900 MB
Linux on Power® 350 MB
Linux x86_64 950 MB
Linux on System z® 350 MB
Mac OS X 200 MB
v In Tivoli Storage Manager 6.3 and later, 32-bit backup-archive clients are nolonger supported. If the deployment manager detects a 32-bit backup-archiveclient running on a 64-bit operating system, it upgrades the client to the 64-bitversion.
v The passwordaccess option must be set to generate.To store the password on the client, a user must log on to local workstationonce, to provide the password. If the client automatic deployment processcannot find the node password, the following events occur:– The deployment process does not start.– A warning message is logged in the setup.log file.
The following messages are examples of the messages that can be loggedduring a deployment.Sun 10/11/2009 10:16:04.35 The deployclient.sh script is started.Sun 10/11/2009 10:16:04.37 deployclient.sh is removing the deployment
manager and temporary files possibly left from the previous installation.Sun 10/11/2009 10:17:10.53 WARNING: Still waiting for the result of query
system information.Ensure that "PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE" is set in the client options fileand that a connection to the server can be made without being promptedfor a password.
If you see these errors and PASSWORDACCESS is set to GENERATE, the errors areprobably caused by a network problem (the client cannot be reached).
– The dsmc query systeminfo command is left running.– The deployment process cannot start, so no messages are sent to the server.
v The client is deployed from the server as a scheduled task; the client schedulerdaemon must be running.
v The client is deployed as a postschedule operating system command; scheduledoperating system commands must be enabled on the client.
v You must configure your server to perform backup-archive client automaticdeployments. See the Tivoli Storage Manager server documentation forinstructions.
The deployment manager writes log and trace data for a deployment operation tothe client’s disk. The default location of the logs is shown in Table 2. The xxxxrepresents the version, release, modification, and fix pack information for thedeployed backup-archive client.
Table 2. Default log file location.
Operating System Directory

Solaris, HP-UX, Linux /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/IBM_ANR_UNX/Vxxxx/log/
Mac /Library/Application Support/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/IBM_ANR_MAC/Vxxxx/log
When you define a schedule to deploy the client updates, you can specify anon-default retrieval target location for UNIX and Linux platforms. Specifying anon-default retrieval target location changes the location of the log and trace files.For example, the default retrieval target location for AIX is /usr/tivoli/client/. Ifyou specify /tmp/tivoli/client as the target location, the log and trace files willbe under /tmp/tivoli/client/IBM_ANR_UNX/Vxxxx/log.
On the Mac OS X platform, you cannot change the retrieval target location. Thedeployment manager's working directory is relative to the working directory of theclient scheduler. For example, if the user starts the client scheduler from /mydir,the log and trace files will be under /mydir/IBM_AMR_MAC/Vxxxx/log.
A semaphore is used to prevent a client from being updated by differentdeployment managers at the same time. The semaphore expires 24 hours from thelast client deployment. New clients cannot be deployed until the semaphoreexpires.Related reference:“Autodeploy” on page 316

Installing the Tivoli Storage Manager AIX clientYou can install the Tivoli Storage Manager AIX client from the product DVD, orother installation media.
About this task
In Tivoli Storage Manager Version 7.1.4, a 64-bit version of the AIX client isprovided in the distribution libraries. You cannot upgrade a previously installed32-bit AIX client to new the 64-bit AIX client. If you have a 32-bit client that isinstalled from a previous version of Tivoli Storage Manager, use SMIT to performthe following steps:1. Uninstall the 32-bit client (tivoli.tsm.client.ba).2. Uninstall any national language files that were previously installed.3. Uninstall the API (tivoli.tsm.client.api.32bit).
Next, use SMIT to install the following packages in the Tivoli Storage ManagerV7.1.4 distribution libraries, in the following order:1. Install the 64-bit API (tivoli.tsm.client.api.64bit).2. Install the 64-bit client (tivoli.tsm.client.ba.64bit).
If you already have a 64-bit Tivoli Storage Manager V6.3 (or newer) client installed,you can upgrade the client instead of uninstalling it and reinstalling it.
If you have a 64-bit client from an earlier version of Tivoli Storage Managerinstalled (for example, V6.1, or V6.2) you must uninstall the client, language packs,and API. Then, install the new Tivoli Storage Manager API and client.
All of the packages that are needed to install the client are in the Tivoli StorageManager AIX client package, and they overwrite any older runtime applications onyour system during installation. The LibC (C Set ++) runtime library is required.
When you use the installp command to install this client, do not change thedefault field values for the following two choices:v AUTOMATICALLY install requisite software?v OVERWRITE same or newer versions?

Disabling or changing the values allows a lower-level Tivoli Storage Managercomponent to install over a currently higher installed component. Under suchcircumstances, function calls between components at different levels might not bevalid any longer.
Install the following packages. They are all provided on the installation media. Youneed an Extended Edition license to use the NAS client.
The following files are listed in order of dependency. For example, the API isdependent on the Global Security Kit (GSKit). When you install all of them usingSMIT, you can select them (F7) in any order.
GSKit8.gskcrypt64.ppc.rte and GSKit8.gskssl64.ppc.rteIBM GSKit 64-bit (required by the 64-bit client API).
tivoli.tsm.client.api.64bitInstalls the 64-bit API.
tivoli.tsm.client.ba.64bitInstalls the following Tivoli Storage Manager 64-bit files:v Backup-archive Java client (GUI)v Backup-archive web clientv Hardware backup clientv Snapshot hardware backup clientv NAS backup client
tivoli.tsm.filepath_aixInstalls the file path kernel extension that is required for journal-basedbackup.
tivoli.tsm.client.jbb.64bitInstalls the Tivoli Storage Manager journal-based backup component.
Each package is installed in the following default installation directory:v The Tivoli Storage Manager backup-archive, web client, and administrative client
(dsmadmc) 64-bit files are installed in the /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin64directory.
v The Tivoli Storage Manager 64-bit API files are installed in the/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin64 directory.
v The sample system-options file, dsm.sys.smp, is placed in the installationdirectory.
This installation procedure can be used to install new distributions or updates froma DVD or other media. If you download files from Passport Advantage® or otherIBM website, the files that you use to install the client might be compressed.Depending on the package file format, either copy or extract the files to disk anduse these instructions to install the components.
If you are copying the client files into a local directory first, a .toc file isautomatically created by the installp command. You can create a .toc filemanually by running /usr/sbin/inutoc in the local directory to which you copiedthe Tivoli Storage Manager image. From the AIX command line, enter:
/usr/sbin/inutoc /usr/sys/inst.images
A .toc file is created in that directory.
