Registering with the TSM server

Before backing up to and recovering from an IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager (TSM) server, you must have a TSM registered node name and a password. The process of setting up a node name and password is called registration.

After the HCL Informix® Interface for TSM node is registered with a TSM server, you can begin using the HCL Informix Interface for TSM to back up and restore your HCL Informix storage spaces and logical logs. If your workstation has a node name assigned to the TSM backup-archive client, you should have a different node name for HCL Informix Interface for TSM. For information about performing the registration process, see the Tivoli Storage Manager Backup-Archive Client Installation and User's Guide.
