Setting options for the server
Review the server options file that is installed with the IBM Storage Protect server to verify that the correct values are set for your system.
Procedure
- Go to the server instance directory and open the dsmserv.opt file.
-
Review the values in the following table and verify your server option settings, based on
system size.
Update server option settings if necessary, to match the values in the table. To make updates, close the dsmserv.opt file and use the SETOPT command from the administrative command-line interface to set the options.

dsmserv.opt file by using the following guidelines:
- Remove the asterisk at the beginning of a line to enable an option.
- On each line, enter only one option and the specified value for the option.
- If an option occurs in multiple entries in the file, the server uses the last entry.
