DSM_CONFIG
Specifies the location of the client options file dsm.opt. Set this environment
variable to the fully qualified path and file name of the client options file.
DSM_DIR
Specifies the location of all other client files. Set this environment variable to
the directory where the client message file dsc*.txt, the executable file dsmc,
and the resource files are located. On UNIX/Linux clients, this directory also
contains the dsm.sys option file.
DSM_LOG
Points to the directory where you want the dsmerror.log, dsmwebcl.log, and
dsmsched.log files to reside. The error log file, dsmerror.log, contains
information about any processing errors. The Web log file, dsmwebcl.log, is
for errors that occur when the client is accessed through the Web interface.
The schedule log, dsmsched.log, contains the output of scheduled
commands.
Note: DSM_LOG environment variable changes have been made in the
Tivoli Storage Manager V5.3 client and later to prevent a security or data
integrity problem. Logs are no longer created in the installation directory. In
addition, if the client cannot open a required log for writing, the client
process will terminate. The Tivoli Storage Manager command-line client,
the Web Client Acceptor, and the agent will
dsmerror.log.
LANG
On AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, Linux, and Windows platforms, the backup-archive
client automatically detects the language of the system locale and displays in
that language. To change the locale on UNIX/Linux, use the LANG
environment variable. For example, if LANG is set to Czech, the
backup-archive is displayed in Czech, provided that the Czech client
language pack is installed. If Tivoli Storage Manager cannot load the Czech
message catalog, it will default to the English (United States) language pack.
On Windows platforms, use the LANGUAGE client option to change the
national language in which the client displays the messages.
Options file
Tivoli Storage Manager includes options that control processing for user
sessions. For example, you can use options to tell Tivoli Storage Manager which
communication method to use, what format to use for dates, whether to use
client compression, and more.
