Eric, see APAR IC42006. It should be corrected in TSM server 5.2.3.0. Best regards

I have everything setup for my INTEL machine running Win2K(TSM 5.2) to backup to my TSM server(AIX 5.2, TSM 5.22) and I kicked off the scheduled backup. The client sits behind a firewall with port 6150 open in 1 direction(server to client). The server contacts the client but in the error log of the client I'm receiving ======================================================================== === Client TSM error log. 11/04/2004 14:33:16 ReadPswdFromRegistry(): RegOpenPathEx(): Win32 RC=2 . 11/04/2004 14:33:16 ReadPswdFromRegistry(): getRegValue(): Win32 RC=2 . 11/04/2004 14:33:16 sessOpen: Error 137 from signon authentication. ======================================================================== === OPT File - Key items ============================ tcpport 6150 SCHEDMODE PROMPTED SCHEDLOGRETENTION 60 S TCPNODELAY YES TCPWINDOWSIZE 63 PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE SESSIONINITIATION serveronly =========================== I went through the wizard and put the password in when it came to that screen. It's the same password as the password I had set on the server. The server keeps connecting to the client and the client keeps putting out the same error. I'm not sure how to get them to sync up so the backups take place.

In dsm.opt: sessioninitiation serveronly schedmode prompted The password issue: The password is not "generated" the first time. When you registered the client to the server, you assigned it a password. To set up the scheduler on the INTEL client, start the GUI client, from the top menu pull down Utilites -> Setup Wizard. Check "help me configure the scheduler". Walk through the wizard; the wizard installs the scheduler as a Windows Service (like an AIX daemon that is defined in /etc/inittab). - For the "scheduler name", type in "TSM SCHEDULER", or something similarly descriptive. - one of the items you will be asked for is the password. The password gets encrypted and saved in the registry so that the scheduler can contact the TSM server. - you will also be asked for the port, the server TCP/IP address, etc. -When you are asked about the log file names, include/exclude, just take the defaults. -The only non-obvious thing: when you get to the step in the Wizard that asks for "service login options", leave the box checked that says "system", but change startup from Manual to "AUTOMATIC". After you check FINISH, the service should be started (go to Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Admin tools -> Services, look for TSM Scheduler). Check the dsmsched.log file to make sure you get the "waiting for server to contact" message, and you are good to go. The next time the password expires, the server will "generate" a new one and pass it down to the client. Hope that helps...

I'm running TSM 5.2.2 server on an AIX machine running AIX 5.2. I have a UNIX machine behind the firewall which I currently backup over port 6150 without a problem using "ServerInitiated Backups". The Passwordaccess is set to generate. To setup the UNIX machine the 1st time I went to the command line(on client), typed dsmc, kickoff the scheduled backup from the server and it prompted for the password. I entered the PW and the backup took off. After the 1st time it(password entered) the backups run each day with no intervention. The firewall has only port 6150 open in 1 direction(server to client). How do you setup an INTEL machine with "ServerOnly", server initiated backups? On the server I have the client setup with the following ========================== Session Initiation ServerOnly HLADDRESS 158.187.101.99 LLADDRESS 6150 ============================= On the client do I need to add a line in the dsm.opt "sessioninitiation serveronly" In the dsm.opt currently I have Passwordacces generate tcpclientp 6150 SCHEDMODE polling (assume that client is waiting for server to contact it) Is there any other lines I need to add? Also how is the password generated the 1st time so the communications between the server and client is established when the server contacts the client. I have not setup a windows machine through the firewall and the documentation seemed easier to understand with AIX than with INTEL. Thanks Have a Great Day, Eric ForwardSourceID:NT00052CD6
