Bourne and Korn shell variables

To set up your Bourne or Korn shell, add environment variables to the .profile file in your $HOME directory.

The following example shows HSM variable definitions:
DSM_DIR=/home/hsmuser
DSM_CONFIG=/home/hsmuser/dsm.opt
DSM_LOG=/home/hsmuser
export DSM_DIR DSM_CONFIG DSM_LOG
  • The DSM_DIR = /home/hsmuser entry identifies the path for the executable files, the resource files, and the client system options file.
  • The DSM_CONFIG=/home/hsmuser/dsm.opt entry sets the path and file name for the client user options file.
  • The DSM_LOG=/home/hsmuser entry sets the location of the dsmerror.log file.
