Dsmcad listening port

2015-12-18 Thread Henrik Ahlgren
Can someone explain why the Client Acceptor Daemon (dsmcad) opens a random port ("ANS3000I TCP/IP communications available on port X") when: - SCHEDMODE is set to POLLING - MANAGEDSERVICES is set to SCHEDULE How do you configure a TSM client to *never* listen to *any* port, but still using ds

HI, CAD opens random port because the option WEBPORT has default value "0 0" and CAD randomly assign a free TCPport (the first parameter for CAD, the second for WEB client). I think it’s impossible to prevent this. As workaround you can set fixed port(s) and close it using firewall. Example: WEBP

Welcome back Robert. Lots of changes from the TSM 5 days. I don't have any links to docs, but my experience has been... I'm running Windows, 32 GB RAM, TSM 6.3.4.300. I run 40 sessions on each Replication process. The process is replicating a group that may have several members, 2 up to 15 or

Thank you for your gracious response. To demonstrate just how long its been, I forgot to mention that I'm working with TSM 7.1.1, on some AIX (6.1 I believe) and RedHat on Intel (7.2?) servers. I think I'll be running some basic network performance tests first. The throughput I'm seeing doesn't

You don't need to run the dsmcad technically speaking. You can just run a dsmc sched daemon or service. > On Dec 18, 2015, at 10:47 AM, Henrik Ahlgren wrote: > >> On Fri, Dec 18, 2015 at 12:40:46PM +0300, Efim wrote: >> >> CAD opens random port because the option WEBPORT has default value "0

We stagger our replication during the morning, to avoid locking the node too long. Some things that we have seen: 1. If the node has a current backup session running and you attempt to replicate it, the backup session gets killed since replication takes priority. This has been a problem with
