I have installed a predefined dsm.opt file, when installing TSM 4.1.2 on
Windows 2000 that has not had the client previously installed.  Placed
dsm.opt in the ..\config directory and ran setup.

If you are using W2K Group Policy to install the client (again on a "clean"
server), I have found that it does not use the custom dsm.opt file.  Ditto
if you just run "Tivoli Storage Manager Client.msi".

How were you installing the client?

Subject: Custom dsm.opt in Client v4.1.2


Gentle Greetings,

Has anyone yet succeeded in installing a predefined (custom) dsm.opt file
with TSM client version 4.1.2?  So far all of our attempts have
failed...  the installer seems to ignore anything I put in the ...\config
folder.

I have read and tried to follow the instructions in the README that came
with 4.1.2, though I have some concern that the path referenced there does
not reflect the path to the config folder after extracting the files from
the 4.1.2 installer exe.  It looks more like the path that was used in
previous versions.  So I wonder if this process works in this version.

Thank you in advance for any help, suggestions, and/or shared experiences.

Jennifer
