Start the server in maintenance mode

With Tivoli® Storage Manager Version 7.1.3, maintenance mode is the preferred method for starting the server before you begin maintenance or reconfiguration tasks. When you start the server in maintenance mode, operations that might disrupt maintenance or reconfiguration tasks are automatically disabled.

Start the server in maintenance mode by running the DSMSERV utility with the MAINTENANCE parameter.
