dsmcutil command

The IBM Spectrum Protect™ Client Service Configuration Utility, dsmcutil, can be used to install backup-archive client services on local and remote Windows workstations.

You can use the dsmcutil command to install the following client services:

Backup-Archive Scheduler Service
Client Acceptor Service
Remote Client Agent Service
Journal Engine Service

The Client Service Configuration Utility must be run from an account that belongs to the Administrator/Domain Administrator group. The syntax for the command is as shown in the following text:


                         .-SCHEDuler---.   
>>-dsmcutil-- --command--+-service-----+-----------------------><
                         +-CAD---------+   
                         +-JOURnal-----+   
                         '-REMOTEagent-'

Note: Options that you specify with dsmcutil commands override option that you specify in your options file (dsm.opt).

The account that runs the utility must have the appropriate user rights for installing services and updating the Windows Registry on the target workstation.

If a remote workstation is specified, the account must be authorized to connect to the Windows Registry of the specified workstation.

Note: For the commands and options that are documented here, the minimum abbreviation that you can type is shown in uppercase letters.
