Server startup script: dsmserv.rc
You can use the dsmserv.rc script to stop a server instance, or to manually or automatically start a server.
Prerequisites
Before you issue the DSMSERV.RC command, complete the following steps:- Ensure that the Tivoli® Storage Manager server instance runs under a non-root user ID with the same name as the instance owner.
- Copy the dsmserv.rc script to the /etc/rc.d/init.d directory. The dsmserv.rc script is in the server installation directory, for example, /opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin.
- Rename the script so that it matches the name of the server instance owner, for example, tsminst1.
- Use tools such as the CHKCONFIG utility to configure the run level in which the server automatically starts. Specify a value that corresponds to a multiuser mode, with networking turned on. Typically, the run level to use is 3 or 5, depending on the operating system and its configuration. For details about run levels, see the documentation for your operating system.
