Transaction processing options
Transaction processing options control how Tivoli® Storage Manager processes transactions between the client and server.
Table 1 lists the transaction processing options that are available.
Option | Description |
---|---|
collocatebyfilespec | Specifies that you want the Tivoli Storage Manager client to use only one server session to send objects generated from one file specification. Setting the collocatebyfilespec option to yes eliminates interspersing of files from different file specifications, by limiting the client to one server session per file specification. Therefore, if you store the data to tape, files for each file specification are stored together on one tape (unless another tape is required for more capacity). |
commrestartduration | Specifies the maximum number of minutes you want the client to try to reconnect to a Tivoli Storage Manager server after a communication error occurs. |
commrestartinterval | Specifies the number of seconds you want the client to wait between attempts to reconnect to a Tivoli Storage Manager server after a communication error occurs. |
diskbuffsize | Specifies the maximum disk I/O buffer size (in kilobytes) that the client can use when reading files. |
largecommbuffers | This option has been replaced by
the diskbuffsize option. At this time, largecommbuffers is
still accepted by the Tivoli Storage
Manager client in order to ease the transition to the new option.
However, the value specified by largecommbuffers is
ignored in favor of the diskbuffsize setting. Important: Discontinue the use of largecommbuffers because
future releases of Tivoli Storage
Manager might not accept this option.
|
nfstimeout | Specifies the number of seconds the server waits for a status system call on an NFS file system before it times out. |
resourceutilization | Use the resourceutilization option in your client options file dsm.opt to regulate the level of resources the Tivoli Storage Manager server and client can use during processing. |
resourceutilization | Use the resourceutilization option in your dsm.sys file to regulate the level of resources the Tivoli Storage Manager server and client can use during processing. |
txnbytelimit | Specifies the number of kilobytes the client program buffers before it sends a transaction to the server. |
usedirectory | Provides a convenient way to simplify client communication configuration by overriding commmethod parameters set in the client options file and instead querying the Active Directory for the communication method and server with which to connect. |
