Also, if the option files are just to login as a different node, an
alternative to a different .opt file to login as a different node for
restore purpose is to use the -virtualnodename option:
Dsm.exe -vitrualnodename={other node}
You will be prompted for a node/admin and password.
You can even create desktop shortcuts with that with -optfile or
-virtualnodename.

Thanks,

Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Starting TSM Windows GUI with a specific dsm.opt
A couple of ways to do this:
* Set DSM_CONFIG to point to the desired dsm.opt file, then start dsm.exe.
Example:
set DSM_CONFIG=D:\somedir\andy.opt
dsm
* Start dsm.exe and pass in -optfile=path_to_your_options_file
Example:
dsm -optfile=D:\somedir\andy.opt
Regards,
Andy
