defined with the server option tcpport. This is the default. Server promptedscheduling can be used to prompt the client to connect to the server.See “Sessioninitiation” on page 344 for more information about thesessioninitiation option.When using Tivoli Storage Manager across a firewall, please consider thefollowing:v In prompted mode the Tivoli Storage Manager server needs to contact the client.In order to do this, some software might need to be installed on the TivoliStorage Manager server to route the request through the firewall. This softwareroutes the server request through a socks port on the firewall. This is typicallycalled socksifying a system. Proxies are not supported, because they only route afew types of communication protocols (HTTP, FTP, GOPHER). Tivoli StorageManager communications are not routed by proxies. It is important to note thatthe client creates a new connection to the Tivoli Storage Manager server whenprompted. This means that the firewall configuration discussed above must be inplace.v The server cannot log events to a Tivoli Enterprise Console server across afirewall.|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||Configuring the journal daemonJournal-based backup is supported on AIX clients for JFS, JFS2 and VxFS filesystem types. If you install the journal daemon and it is running, then by default theincremental command will automatically perform a journal-based backup onselected file systems which are being monitored by the journal engine service. See“Journal-based backup on AIX” on page 89 for more information.Journal-Based Backup is enabled by installing and configuring the Tivoli StorageManager daemon. To install the Tivoli Storage Manager daemon, you need tocustomize the file named tsmjbbd.ini.smp, which is placed in the install directory,and save it as tsmjbbd.ini. The install process modified /etc/inittab to start thejournal daemon on a reboot. You can also start the daemon on the command lineby entering the name of the executable - tsmjbbd.Journal-based backup is enabled by installing and configuring the Tivoli StorageManager journal daemon. The Tivoli Storage Manager journal daemon can beconfigured by editing the journal daemon configuration sample file,tsmjbbd.ini.smp, and saving it as tsmjbbd.ini. Both the configuration sample fileand the saved file should be in the default install directory.The journal configuration file, (tsmjbbd.ini), needs as a minimum a list of the filesystems to monitor. These two lines are sufficient:[JournaledFilesystemSettings]JournaledFileSystems=/homeEnter a JournalDir setting and a JournalExcludeList for the database files (see thesample file). An Errorlog setting will also explicitly name the errorlog file. After theconfiguration file is created, start the journal daemon using the scriptfile:/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/rc.tsmjbb. The journal will write initializationinformation to the errorlog. When you are satisfied that the journal is workingcorrectly, you should run the script file, /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/jbbinittab. Running the script file will make entries in /etc/inittab, so that thejournal will begin running when you restart your system.56 IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for UNIX and Linux: Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User’s Guide
