Greetings oh Guru's of TSM! My first linux client complains that there is "No domain available" when I try to run your basic incremental. The same server domain works fine on other systems. I looked at the ADSM-L archives and found a clue that Linux may not have a default domain, so I tried to set it, but I'm still not having any luck. I have tried a domain statement in both dsm.opt and dsm.sys but neither worked. According to the manual, a file specification trumps a domain statement, and sure enough "dsmc incr / -subdir=yes" works. So it is a problem with the client domain. What am I overlooking?
TIA! - Kai.
