Re: TDP for Informix password register fail
Mario, What we do here is: Create a new stanza in the dsm.sys and name it nodename_instance. Create an instance.opt file in /usr/bin and a link in /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin to this file, set your informix user's environment variable DSMI_CONFIG=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin/instance.opt, then try setting your password.

Re: TDP for Informix password register fail
Mario, The first stanza in our dsm.sys files are for the regular OS, we'll call this node, mario. The second stanza is for a database instance named informix, for example mario_informix, see dsm.sys file below. Create a /usr/bin/informix.opt and link to it /opt/tivoli/tsm/clien/api/bin/informix.opt. In your informix.opt file, make sure the servername is mariosbackupservera, so it will point to the correct nodename in dsm.sys. Then set your env variable temporarily to /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin/informix.opt, and try setting your password.

New version of TDP for informix
Hello all, Does anyone know the version of DP for informix that is still supported by IBM. We are using TDP Informix 4.1.3, but from everything I can find that has been replaced and end-of-serviced. As far as I can tell it has been replaced by ITSM for Databases 5.1.0, but I cannot find this version on the FTP site for informix, all I can find is ITSM for databases for oracle on AIX. I need ITSM for databases for Informix on Solaris. Any insight on this issue would be appreciated. Geoff Raymer EDS - Tulsa BUR and Leveraged Storage MS 326 4000 N.

Issues with auditocc table
TSM Server 5.1.5.0 I am running the following SQL command against my database and coming up with several nodes that have 0 MB in the archive_mb and backup_mb columns, but they should not be that way. select node_name,backup_mb,archive_mb from auditocc Yet if I run the command below to the occupancy table, it shows that these same nodes have data in the database. Can anyone explain the difference in the two tables, and why the auditocc table shows no data for these nodes? select node_name,physical_mb,logical_mb from occupancy Thanks, Geoff Raymer EDS - Tulsa BUR and Leveraged Storage MS 326 4000 N.
