servername nodename_agent

tcpserveraddress 127.0.0.1
tcpport 1510
commmethod tcpip

The tcpserveraddress could be the address of your real server, but it is shown h
ere as the standard IP address of the localhost, as it is just used for internal
communication.
The tcpport number does not have to be 1510, but it must match the value you use
d in dsmsta.opt. I avoid 1500 as that is the server default and like to use 1501
upwards for the webports, so it seems reasonable to standardise all the storage
agents at 1510. You must make sure that you do not conflict with any address us
ed by other software on your machine so this standard might not be suitable for
you.

Next you need to add some lines to your exisiting backup stanzas like this

servername TSM1
commmethod tcpip
webports 1501,0
other parms .
lanfreecommmethod tcpip
lanfreetcpport 1510
enablelanfree yes
etc

The lanfreetcpport number must match the tcpport in dsmsta.opt and the tcpport i
n the storage agent stanza

Management Class

Finally you need to create a management class that writes direct to tape. Thebac
kup section discusses how to do this
