Configuring the Web client

You can use the GUI Setup Wizard or command line to install and configure the Web client.
To install and configure the Web client using the GUI Setup Wizard, perform the following steps:
  1. From the native client GUI's main window, open the Utilities menu and select Setup Wizard.
  2. Select the Help me configure the TSM Web Client check box.
  3. Click the Next button and then follow the instructions on the screen.
To install and configure the Web client from the command line, perform the following steps:
  1. Ensure that you specify passwordaccess generate in the client options file (dsm.opt). For more information on passwordaccess, see Passwordaccess.
  2. Install the Client Acceptor Service by entering the following command:
    dsmcutil install cad /name:"TSM CAD" /node:nodename /password:password /autostart:yes 
    where nodename and password are your Storage Manager node name and password. TSM CAD is an example name, you can use any name you want. The default name is TSM Client Acceptor.
  3. Install the Remote Client Agent Service by entering the following command:
    dsmcutil install remoteagent /name:"TSM AGENT" /node:nodename  /password:password /partnername:"TSM CAD" 
    where nodename and password are your Storage Manager node name and password. TSM AGENT is an example name, you can use any name as long as it is different from the CAD name. The default name is TSM Remote Client Agent. The /partnername option value must match the name of the CAD service. The default is name is TSM Client Acceptor.
  4. Start the client acceptor service by entering: net start "TSM CAD" on the command line, or do the following:
      1. Open the Windows Start menu and select Settings-> Control Panel.
      2. Double-click Administrative Tools and then double-click Services.
      3. In the Services window, right-click TSM CAD and select Start from the pop-up menu.
    The Tivoli Storage Manager Remote Client Agent service must not be started manually. It is automatically started by the Tivoli Storage Manager Client Acceptor service when needed.
    The only options applicable to the dsmcad program are optfile, httpport, managedservices, and webports. You can use the managedservices option to specify whether the Tivoli Storage Manager Client Acceptor daemon (CAD) also manages the Tivoli Storage Manager scheduler.
