Hi John, We have about 30 clustered volumes so I typically get unimaginative and call the nodes a variation of NetWare volume name and then either server or cluster. For example, admin_server or print_cluster. We're a smallish shop in TSM terms and all in one location so I can keep things simple. Node names should make sense to the folks using them and I'm not aware of any penalties, except to type, for longer ones than I use.
Your opt file looks okay to me. I don't specify the NW user in mine and use the TSM.PWD are the only substantive differences I can see. I'd re-emphasize turning TSAFS's cluster awareness off via TSA.cfg. Good luck. Andrew Ferris Network Support Analyst iCAPTURE Research Centre University of British Columbia
