Installing and configuring the TSM client for Windows.

The instructions presume that this is the first time
that TSM has been installed on the computer. It should
work for computers that already have a previous version
of the TSM software, but notes will be made at the end
as to potential problems and how to start over again.

These instructions already presume that you have gone
to http://tsm.princeton.edu and set up a TSM account for
the computer. You will need to know the TSM nodename
(usually the computer's hostid), the TSM server it's on
(TSMx, where x is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7), and the
TSM password. If you don't know these three things, you
will not be able to configure the TSM client software.
You can find these three pieces of information by going
to http://tsm.princeton.edu and clicking on Maintain for
those TSM accounts for which you are a primary contact.
You cannot look up a TSM password, you can only change
it.

Log on to the computer as the Administrator or with
administrative privileges. Download the current version
of the TSM client software, version 6.1.0.2, here:

32-bit

ftp://index.storsys.ibm.com/tivoli-storage-management/patches/client/v6r1/Windows/x32/v610/

64-bit

ftp://index.storsys.ibm.com/tivoli-storage-management/patches/client/v6r1/Windows/x64/v610/

Save the file, 6.1.0.2-TIV-TSMBAC-WinX32.exe or
6.1.0.2-TIV-TSMBAC-WinX64.exe to a directory on the
local computer.

Double click on the .exe file to start the installation
process. Accept the first screen, which asks where to place
the objects that it unpacks, by clicking Next. If you
have a previous installation, you will already have a
C:\tsm_images directory with contents. Click Yes to All
to unpack the new version - extraction starts. If you have
never installed TSM on the computer before, you will
not be prompted and the extraction begins immediately.

Select a language (English), click OK. Installation starts.

Click Next on the Welcome screen. Click Next on the Destination
Folder screen. Click Next on the Setup Type screen. Accept all
defaults (Typical installation).

Click Install on the Ready screen to begin installation.
When the process has completed, click Finish.

You must start the TSM application in order to configure it,
do this by going to the Start Menu, select All Programs, click
on the Tivoli Storage Manager folder and then click on
Backup-Archive GUI. You should be presented with a Configuration
Wizard screen if this is the first time that TSM has been run
on the computer. Click on Next.

(If you do not get the Configuration Wizard, select Setup Wizard
from the Utilities menu in the TSM application.)

Default: Create a new options file. Click Next.

Supply Nodename, this is the name of the computer and should
match the name you used when you registered the account on the
TSM page. For demonstration purposes, I am going to use my
computer, ICEBERG (case is ignored in TSM). Click Next.

Default: TCP/IP. Click Next.

The TCP/IP options screen requires you to fill in the address
and port number of the TSM server where the account is registered.
My account is on TSM5, so I supply these values:

Server Address
tsm5.princeton.edu

Port Number
1605

If your server is TSM6, you enter tsm6.princeton.edu and 1606.

Click Next.

Click Next to accept all of the default Include/Exclude options.

Click Next to accept all of the Common File Exclusions.

Check the box 'Back up all local file systems', then click Next.

Click Apply.

You will now be prompted to log into your TSM account. The TSM
nodename (User id) should be supplied. Enter your TSM password
and click Login.

Click Finish to complete the configuration and start the actual
TSM client application.

This completes the basic installation and configuration. If you
run the TSM backup manually, you do not need to configure the
scheduler or journalling engine. If you want your computer to
back up automatically, you need to install the scheduler at a
minimum.

Continue on from the last step or start the TSM application again
if you closed it down. Select Setup Wizard from the Utilities 
menu.

Click the box in front of these two options:

Help me configure the TSM Client Scheduler
Help me configure the TSM Journal Engine

Click Next.

The Scheduler window appears, click Next.

Default: Install a new or additional scheduler. Click Next.

If there isn't a name in the box for the name of the scheduler,
enter 'TSM Client Scheduler' (no quotes). Default: Local
Machine. Do not check the box for 'Use the Client...'. Click
Next.

Accept the default location for the option file. Click Next.

Supply your TSM nodename and TSM password. Click Next.

Default: The System account. 
Change the second option from Manually to Automatic. Click Next.

Accept all defaults on the Log file screen. Click Next.

Default start option: No. Click Next.

Click Apply.

The scheduler configuration is now done and the journal configuration
is started. Although the screen will instruct you to Press 'Finish',
you will click Next instead.

The Journal window appears, click Next.

Default: Install a new TSM Journal Engine. Click Next.

Check the box in front of 'Journal all local file systems'. Click Next.

Accept the default journal database location. Click Next.

Accept the default notification filters. Click Next.

Accept the default database size. Click Next.

Repeat the above three lines for each disk drive.

Accept the default service login option (system account), click Next.

Default start option: No. Click Next.

Click Apply.

Click Finish to return to the TSM application.

Select Client Preferences from the Edit menu.

Click on the Authorization tab. Change the Password Access option
from Prompt to Generate. Click Apply. Click OK. 

Click on the Performance Tuning tab. Change the Memory Usage
algorithm from memory-resident to memory-saving. Click Apply. Click OK.

Click OK.

Close the TSM application.

Start the TSM application, you should not be challenged for a 
TSM password. If you are, close the application and try again.
If a TSM password is still required, check the Password Access
screen again and make sure that you are typing in the correct
TSM password.

If all else fails, you can delete the dsm.opt file from the
TSM installation directory:

C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient

and start the TSM application again to start the default configuration
wizard. You can run the Setup Wizard anytime from within the TSM
application to update or remove your scheduler or journalling 
engine.

Reboot your computer. To see if the scheduler is running, check
the tail end of the dsmsched.log file that is created in the
TSM installation directory. This file tracks all of the backup
transactions during a scheduled backup.
