Thanks. Is there any permission problems going to Solaris from the server or any parameters that you see that I'm missing? Will it use the port defined in the "dsm.sys" file which is the 6150 port?

No, there is no limits when it comes to the server pushing data to the client.

I have a client machine in our DMZ which I backup through port 6150. The port is only open in 1 direction so the backups are server initiated over port 6150. I'm only testing the backups at this point until I can successfully restore data to the machine. What I need to do is restore data to the client over port 6150 from the server(server initiated). I found a command "clientaction" but I was told by a few people that you could not push data to a client from the TSM server. The TSM server is running AIX 5.2 and TSM 5.2.2 The client is running Solaris 8 and TSM 5.2.2 define clientaction OWGORAD4 domain=UNIX90 action=restore objects=/user/bill/myfile.txt What I put in and I'm assuming is correct. OWGORAD4 is the client I want to restore data to. domain - Policy assigned to the client on the server action - restore data to client objects - file to restore Will this create a 1 time job that will push the file or directory listed in "objects" to the client machine? The restores we normally do are from client request and nothing inside the DMZ so this is all new to me. Is there a different or better way to do a restore like this? I assume on the "server command" line on the WEB interface I issue this command. Thanks Have a Great Day, Eric
