Optfile
The optfile option specifies the client options file to use when you start a Tivoli® Storage Manager session.
Supported Clients
This option is valid for all clients.
Parameters
- file_name
- Specifies
an alternate client options file, if you use the fully
qualified path name. If you specify only the file name, Tivoli Storage Manager assumes
the file name specified is located in the current working directory.
The default is dsm.opt.
Restriction: Specify the full path when you use this option with the client acceptor daemon (dsmcad), because the client acceptor daemon changes its working directory to root ("/") after initialization.
Examples
- Command line:
-
dsmc query session -optfile=myopts.opt
- Client acceptor daemon:
-
dsmcad -optfile=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/myopts.opt
This option is valid only on the initial command line. It is not valid in interactive mode.
