[Mag0007]

Anyone here use IBM onDemand (

in conjunction with TSM? I have a system here thats running onDemand, Db2, and TSM. And I would like to know how onDemand talks to TSM.

TIA!

Hehe, thanks RMG!

Ask him, how TSM interfaces with onDemand? I still can't figure out why and how it does!

RMG:

Any luck on this?

So far, I checked out the config files in Ondemand, and the path to the tsm server is within the config files of ondemand (it's in /usr/lpp/ars/...) .It was setup in our company by an IBM engineer from France, who spent about 4 days trying to get it to work,so it certainly isn't easy.As this has been a while( about 7 years ), nobody really remembers exactly how it has been done, but my boss was there also when it was installed, with some luck he still has some documents or info related to the ondemand setup.When I have news, I'll let you know !

rgds,

RMG:

Start deserved! I run the same ars thing too...and use optical platters.

This piece of software is somewhat complicated! It uses DB2, onDemand, and TSM!

Also, where can you get the install CD for this? I would like to install this on a test system, to further understand it....

I worked on an IBM account that used TSM and ondemand for check imaging. There is a OnDemand API that talks to TSM. Much like the API's for the oracle and sql TDP solutions for TSM.

Do you know where I can download the onDemand portion? FOr AIX, Linux (or even Windows, I am getting desperate).
