IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Implementation Guide
You can save the msinfo32 report file in any directory that is not excluded by the
Tivoli Storage Manager backup-archive client. We recommend using a standard
location where members of the organization will know to look.
Once there is a backup copy of the msinfo32 report for this machine in the Tivoli
Storage Manager server, you probably want to allow other users, such as the
members of your disaster recovery team, to access it. This assumes that they
have Tivoli Storage Manager backup-archive client node IDs registered for them.
In Example 20-5, the Tivoli Storage Manager backup-archive client command
line (the GUI can also be used) is used to permit a Tivoli Storage Manager Client
Node ID called DRTEAM to access the msinfo32.txt file backed up from the
directory c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\msinfo.
Example 20-5 Setting client system information report access
dsmc set acc backup “c:\program files\Tivoli\TSM\config\msinfo32.txt” DRTEAM
Assuming you have authorized it, a Tivoli Storage Manager backup-archive client
user on another node could restore your msinfo32 report to a temporary directory
on their machine so that it can be referred to an alternative location while the
destroyed machine is rebuilt.
20.1.4 Insert client machine information into DRM
Client machine information can be inserted in DRM for potential use later during
disaster recovery. The Tivoli Storage Manager INSERT MACHINE command
allows an administrator to store machine characteristics and recovery
instructions in DRM. Using this method the data can easily be queried and
updated by an administrator, without requiring access to storage pool volumes,
and the information can potentially be a part of a Tivoli Disaster Recovery
Manager PREPARE recovery plan file.
We outline below how machine information can be inserted into DRM. We
assume that the client machine is already defined as a DRM client machine
(using the DEFINE MACHINE command). You can use the administrative
