Automatic start On AIX, after the Tivoli Storage Manager server installation, the system is configured to start the Tivoli Storage Manager server automatically during the system startup. The following entry is added to the system initialization file /etc/inittab: autosrvr:2:once:/usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/rc.adsmserv >/dev/console 2>&1 #Start the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager server Solaris, HP-UX, and Linux also use the /etc/inittab for automatic startup of processes; however, you may prefer to put the commands into another of the possible startup files. We recommend that you refer to your operating system documentation and talk with the system administrator to decide on the best configuration. On Windows, the Tivoli Storage Manager server is installed as a manual service. To change its status to automatic, go to Settings → Control Panel → Administrative Tools → Services, select the Tivoli Storage Manager server service, and change its startup setting to automatic. The Tivoli Storage Manager server will be started automatically the next time the system is rebooted. You can then check that the server is running by trying to connect to the server from an administrative client or a backup-archive client, or by checking whether the Tivoli Storage Manager server process (UNIX/Linux) or service (Windows 2000/2003) is running. Administrative console session If you start the Tivoli Storage Manager server in the background, we highly recommend running an additional administrative client session in console mode on the administrative workstation. This session displays all Tivoli Storage Manager messages so that you can easily monitor the Tivoli Storage Manager system. However, it is not an active session, that is, you cannot issue administrative commands here. Example 13-3 starts an administrative session in console mode.
