The device configuration file for the storage agent includes information on the storage agent itself and information about the TSM server with which the storage agent communicates . The file is typically named devconfig and is located with the storage agent program (by default, c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\storageagent). The DSMSTA SETSTORAGESERVER command normally generates the contents of the file. If you have changes to the TSM server or if a service representative directs you, you may need to make changes to the information. You can use the DSMSTA SETSTORAGESERVER command to add information to the file.
Typical contents of the device configuration file are as follows:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |SET STANAME iris | |SET STAPASSWORD xxxxxxx | |DEFINE SERVER garden serverpassword=botanical | | HLADDRESS=garden.tucson.tivoli.com LLADDRESS=1500 | | | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
In this example, IRIS is the name of the storage agent. The TSM server is GARDEN.
