Registering your node by using open registration
In open registration, the root user registers your workstation as a client node with the Tivoli® Storage Manager server. Your workstation must be registered before anyone can use a Tivoli Storage Manager client on that node.
About this task
Open registration has the following features:
- Your client node is assigned to a policy domain named STANDARD.
- The root user can set the appropriate value for the compression option in your dsm.sys file.
- The root user can delete archived copies, but not backup versions, of files from Tivoli Storage Manager storage. Users can delete archived files that they own.
Note: Your Tivoli Storage Manager
administrator can change these defaults at any time.
