Setting the collocatebyfilespec optionto yes eliminates interspersing of files from different filespecifications, by limiting the client to one server session perfile specification. Therefore, if you store the data to tape,files for each file specification are stored together on onetape (unless another tape is required for more capacity).Specifies the maximum number of minutes you want theclient to try to reconnect to a Tivoli Storage Manager serverafter a communication error occurs.Specifies the number of seconds you want the client to waitbetween attempts to reconnect to a Tivoli Storage Managerserver after a communication error occurs.Specifies the maximum disk I/O buffer size (in kilobytes)that the client can use when reading files.This option has been replaced by the diskbuffsize option. Atthis time, largecommbuffers is still accepted by the TivoliStorage Manager client in order to ease the transition to thenew option. However, the value specified bylargecommbuffers is ignored in favor of the diskbuffsizesetting.Important: Discontinue the use of largecommbuffersbecause future releases of Tivoli Storage Manager might notaccept this option.Use the resourceutilization option in your client options filedsm.opt to regulate the level of resources the Tivoli StorageManager server and client can use during processing.Specifies the number of kilobytes the client program buffersbefore it sends a transaction to the server.Provides a convenient way to simplify client communicationconfiguration by overriding commmethod parameters set inthe client options file and instead querying the ActiveDirectory for the communication method and server withwhich to connect.Web client optionsThis topic describes the options for the Tivoli Storage Manager Web Client.Table 50 lists the Web client options that are available.Table 50.
