Myprimaryserver
The myprimaryserver option specifies the primary server name that the client uses to log on to the secondary server in failover mode.
During the normal (non-failover) logon process, the myprimaryserver option is sent to the client and is saved in the dsm.opt file. Do not edit this option during normal operations.
Important: If you change
the value for the myprimaryserver option, authentication
information such as the IBM Spectrum Protect™ password
and encryption key will no longer work with the new primary server. You will be prompted for the password and encryption key for operations
that require authentication. Therefore, do not change this value even
if you change the secondary server connection information.
Supported Clients
This option is valid only for Windows clients.
Options File
This option is placed in the client options file (dsm.opt).
Parameters
- primary_servername
- Specifies the name of the primary server to be used for authentication during a failover. The primary server is the IBM Spectrum Protect server that a client uses for normal production.
