Setup in TSM/PASE

Setup of the TSM/PASE media management system is relatively simple.

1. Define a user-defined library specifying exit for the drive selection mode.

   DEFINE LIBRARY library-device-name LIBType=USRDFN DRIVESELection=EXIT

   where: library-device-name is the name of a BRMS device.

2. Define the exits for the user-defined library using the program provided by BRMS.

   DEFINE EXIT MOUNT QBRM/Q1AMNTTSM
   DEFINE EXIT DISMOUNT QBRM/Q1AUNLTSM
   DEFINE EXIT DELETION QBRM/Q1ADLTTSM
   DEFINE EXIT EXPIRATION QBRM/Q1AEXPTSM

3. Define a TSM device class for the user-defined library defined in Step 1.

   DEFINE DEVCLASS device-class-name DEVTYPE=device-type 
   	FORMAT=device-format LIBRary=library-device-name

   where: device-class-name is the name of the BRMS media class created in Setup in BRMS and library-device-name is the library name defined in step 1.

   Note:

   See the DEFINE DEVCLASS command in the IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager for iSeries PASE Administrator's Guide for possible values for device-type and device-format as well as additional parameters for defining the device class.
4. Define the TSM storage pool using the device class defined in Step 3.

   DEFINE STGPOOL storage-pool-name device-class-name

   where: storage-pool-name is the name of the sequential storage pool and device-class-name is the name device class created in Step 3.
   Note:

   See the DEFINE STGPOOL command in the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for iSeries PASE Administrator's Guide for additional parameters required when defining the storage pool.

This completes the setup of the TSM/PASE server.
