An excessive number of command line arguments are passed
to the program.
Explanation
This command processing routine received more operands than it
can use. The rules are:
- Query can contain only one file specification.
- Restore and Retrieve can contain two file specifications.
- Archive, Incremental, and Selective can contain a maximum of 20
file specifications. To bypass the 20-operand limit, use the -REMOVEOPERANDLIMIT
option on the failing archive, incremental, or selective command.
Note: The TSM Client operates much more efficiently if it expands
wild cards internally, rather than accepting the expanded list from
the shell.
System action
User response
Reduce the number of arguments and retry the operation. For UNIX-based
systems, ensure that you have surrounded the specification containing
pattern matching characters with quotes. As an alternative, use the
-REMOVEOPERANDLIMIT option on the failing archive, incremental, or
selective command.
