Options FilePlace this option in the dsm.sys file. You can set this option on the Scheduler tab,Maximum comm<strong>and</strong> retries field of the Preferences editor.Syntax►► MAXCMDRetries maxcmdretries ►◄ParametersmaxcmdretriesSpecifies the number of times the client scheduler can attempt to process ascheduled comm<strong>and</strong> that fails. The range of values is zero through 9999; thedefault is 2.ExamplesMemoryefficientbackupOptions file:maxcmdr 4Comm<strong>and</strong> line:-maxcmdretries=4This option is valid only on the initial comm<strong>and</strong> line. It is not valid in interactivemode.The memoryefficientbackup option specifies the memory-conserving algorithm touse <strong>for</strong> processing full file space backups. One method backs up one directory at atime, using less memory. The other method uses much less memory, but requiresmore disk space.Use the memoryefficientbackup option with the incremental comm<strong>and</strong> when yourworkstation is memory constrained. You can also use this option as a parameter tothe include.fs option in order to select the algorithm <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> useson a per-filespace basis.If the memoryefficientbackup option appears in the option file, its value will beused <strong>for</strong> all file systems not represented by an include.fs option containing thememoryefficientbackup parameter. If a directory-level incremental is beingper<strong>for</strong>med, <strong>and</strong> memoryefficientbackup=diskcachemethod is present,memoryefficientbackup=yes will be used.Use memoryefficientbackup=diskcachemethod <strong>for</strong> any file space that has too manyfiles <strong>for</strong> <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> to complete the incremental backup with either thedefault setting, memoryefficientbackup=no, or with memoryefficientbackup=yes.The actual amount of disk space required <strong>for</strong> the disk cache file created by diskcache incremental backups depends on the number of files <strong>and</strong> directories includedin the backup <strong>and</strong> on the average path length of the files <strong>and</strong> directories to bebacked up. For <strong>UNIX</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Linux</strong> estimate 1 byte per character in the path name.For Mac OS X, estimate 4 bytes per character in the path name. For example, ifthere are 1 000 000 files <strong>and</strong> directories to be backed up <strong>and</strong> the average pathlength is 200 characters, then the database will occupy approximately 200 MB <strong>for</strong>348 <strong>IBM</strong> <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>UNIX</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Linux</strong> <strong>Backup</strong>-<strong>Archive</strong> Clients Version 6.1: Installation <strong>and</strong> User’s Guide
