Hi Michael It is likely that you miss following option in your opt-file: passworddir /full path to directory in which you want your file with the encrypted password to be stored. TSM Client needs access to this file as well.

I need some help setting up a Linux client. Specifically, I need a sample DSM.opt, and DSM.sys file. The group responsible for this node, is trying to run the backup via a cron job, but when the backup starts, it asks for a password. When the node was orginally setup, here is what was put into each file, adn as you can see, it is missing alot of information: DSM.sys: ************************************************************************ * Tivoli Storage Manager * * * * Sample Client System Options file for UNIX (dsm.sys.smp) * ************************************************************************ * This file contains the minimum options required to get started * using TSM.
