Hello Charles, DP Oracle relies on the dsm.sys file in the TSM API bin directory (/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin64 on AIX, for instance). So the answer to your question really depends on what you mean by "base dsm.sys"....if by "base dsm.sys" you mean the BA Client, then yes, DP Oracle can use a different dsm.sys file.

Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> We are wondering if its possible to separate the TDP Oracle Cfg so it uses its own dsm.sys instead of the base dsm.sys The reason we ask is our Oracle DBA's use TSM to clone DB's and not all our Unix team member know how to cfg the TDP client and all the stanza's associated with DB Cloning (Backup Restore) I looked in the TDP Redbook, didn't really see a way. Does anyone have a good idea to have a dsm.sys just for OS Backup and Dsm.sys for the Oracle folks? Thank you all for being so helpful!
