Hi Tobias,
Don't use the drive letter. It will work with the server name of the remote machine.
e.g.:
define devclass remoteshare devtype=file dir="\\servername\tsmbackups"
tsm: CMS2_SERVER1>define devclass remoteshare devtype=file dir="\\cms1\tsmbackups"
ANR8366E DEFINE DEVCLASS: Invalid value for DIRECTORY parameter.
ANS8001I Rückkehrcode 3.
Whereas i can see \\cms1\tsmbackups in the file explorer on the machine CMS2, as well as do
C:\>net view \\cms1 Freigegebene Ressourcen auf \\cms1
Name Typ Lokal Beschreibung
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- tsmbackups Platte videos Platte Der Befehl wurde erfolgreich ausgeführt.
in a CLI on CMS2...
I do have to logon to cms1, though, before i can see it in the file explorer - could that be a security thing, that the tsm-server on cms2 is running under anoter user context?
any ideas? thanks for the input,
kind regards, tobi...

Til: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Vedr.: define devclass file on w2k not working on mounted share?
hi all,
I would like to create a devclass of devtype=file on a windows 2000 server (w2k) running tsm5.1.0.0 using as dir-path a mounted share of another machine. So what I do is I mount the share of the other machine, using the gui-analogon to "net use" (sorry, German OS here, don,t know the English terms by heart), on, say, drive f:, and then do
define devclass remoteshare devtype=file dir="f:\tsmbackups" on the admin command line. result is
ANR8366E DEFINE DEVCLASS: Invalid value for DIRECTORY parameter.
I am told that on a Unix-machine, it is possible to define a devclass of type file on mounted volumes...
Am I missing something here? What could be the solution to my problem?
Thanks in advance for any input,
kind regards, tobias hofmann :)
