Nasnodename

The nasnodename option specifies the node name for the NAS file server when processing NAS file systems. Tivoli® Storage Manager prompts you for an administrator ID.

The node name identifies the NAS file server to the Tivoli Storage Manager server. The server must register the NAS file server.

AIX operating systemsLinux operating systemsOracle Solaris operating systemsYou can specify this option on the command line or in the client system-options file (dsm.sys).

Windows operating systemsYou can specify this option on the command line or in the client options file (dsm.opt).

AIX operating systemsLinux operating systemsOracle Solaris operating systemsYou can override the default value in the dsm.sys file by entering a different value on the command line. If you do not specify the nasnodename option in the dsm.sys file, you must specify this option on the command line when processing NAS file systems.

Windows operating systemsYou can override the default value in the dsm.opt file by entering a different value on the command line. If you do not specify the nasnodename option in the dsm.opt file, you must specify this option on the command line when processing NAS file systems.

You can use the nasnodename option with the following commands:

  • backup nas
  • delete filespace
  • query backup
  • query filespace
  • restore nas

You can use the delete filespace command to interactively delete NAS file spaces from server storage.

AIX operating systemsLinux operating systemsOracle Solaris operating systemsUse the nasnodename option to identify the NAS file server. Place the nasnodename option in your client system-options file (dsm.sys). The value in the client system-options file is the default, but this value can be overridden on the command line. If the nasnodename option is not specified in the client system-options file, you must specify this option on the command line when processing NAS file systems.

Windows operating systemsUse the nasnodename option to identify the NAS file server. Place the nasnodename option in your client options file (dsm.opt). The value in the client options file is the default, but this value can be overridden on the command line. If the nasnodename option is not specified in the client options file, you must specify this option on the command line when processing NAS file systems.

Use the class option to specify the class of the file space to delete. To display a list of file spaces belonging to a NAS node so that you can choose one to delete, use the -class=nas option.

To delete NAS file spaces using the web client, see the topic for backing up your data.
