Troubleshooting
Problem
The service creation instructions in the 7.1 installation manual are incorrect.
Symptom
Documentation refers to the console directory which does not exist with version 7.1
Cause
The installation manual indicates that the install.exe in the console directory should be run, however, the console directory does not exist with version 7.1.
Resolving The Problem
The service can be created using the command below:
sc.exe create "TSM Server1" binpath= "C:\Progra~1\Tivoli\Tsm\Server\dsmsvc.exe -k Server1" start= auto obj= .\Administrator password= xxx
Note that there is a space after every equal sign (=) character.
In the example above, the instance is named Server1, the instance user is Administrator, the password is xxx. These values will need to be changed to match the correct values for the install environment. This command must be run as a user of the local Administrators group.
