defaultserver
The defaultserver option specifies the default server to which you back up and archive your files from your local file systems. If you do not specify a migration server with the migrateserver option, this option can also specify the server to which files are migrated from your local file systems.
Options File
Place this option at the beginning of the dsm.sys file before any server stanzas.
Parameters
- servername
- Use the defaultserver option to specify the
name of the Tivoli® Storage Manager server
to contact for backup-archive services if more than one server is
defined in the dsm.sys file. By default, the space management client contacts the server
that is defined by the first stanza in the dsm.sys file.
This option is only used if the servername option
is not specified.
If you do not specify a migration server with the migrateserver option, this option specifies the server to which you want to migrate files.
You can override this option with the following command: dsmmigfs upd /FS –SErver=servername. Replace servername with the name of your server.
The value of defaultserver in the dsm.sys file overrides defaultserver in the dsm.opt file.
