Re: Connecting with acsls

2002-07-02 Thread Alex Paschal

Hi, Jacque.

I experimented with dropping gresham distributape on a test box to see how
that would work out.  I vaguely recall using the lbtest application to make
sure I had configured the TSM SSI stuff correctly.  Have you tried using
lbtest to verify functionality?  That can at least help narrow down the
domain of the problem.

Yeah, I have.

This is evidenced by the RPC call and reply by the TSM server.  It
actually looks like the comms are working.

I can only conclude that the TSM isn't sending the correct information
since it looks like the RPC protocol is working properly but communication
just stops after the firzt session.

Do you know anything about the initial transaction during definition?  This
problem smells badly of a configuration problem but I can't for the life of
think of what I did wrong and I can't troubleshoot it unless I know what the
good information would be.

Jacque,

Are you starting the ACSLS daemon that facilitates communications between
TSM and ACSLS?
This is the code I put in my DSMSERV.RC script and I am having no issues.
This logic is executed before you start the TSM server.

acsdir="/opt/tivoli/tsm/devices/bin"

echo "Starting ACSLS daemon."

cd $acsdir
./rc.acs_ssi quiet $* || "ACSLS Server (\"$acsdir\") error.. Aborting."

Subject: Connecting with acsls


I am setting up a tsm server and cannot define an acsls library.
When I attempt the following command:

define library acslib libtype=acsls acsid=0

The server times out and says that the library is not currently available.

I am currently running samfs on an E450 that can connect and access the
ACSLS server without any problem so I don't think that ACSLS is the
problem.

I have generated traces that seem to indicate that the communication between
the servers is fine but it stops after the first TCP session.  In short the
TSM
interrogates properly for the RPC port, attaches to the port, runs the TCP
session
and then just shuts up.

The configuration is as follows:

P640:
 AIX 4.3.3
 TSM 5.1.1
 SCSI attached LTO within an L180

UltraSparq 5
 Solaris 8
 ACSLS 6.0
 Connected to an L180

Or put it into the /etc/inittab:

autoacs:2:once:/usr/tivoli/tsm/devices/bin/rc.acs_ssi quiet >/dev/console 2>&1
   #Start the ssi agent
