Karel,
does it mean that documentation is wrong?
In doc is written following:

Setting up the Library Client Servers

Use the following sample procedure for each Tivoli Storage Manager server
that
will be a library client server.

1. Define the server that is the library manager:

define server astro serverpassword=secret hladdress=9.115.3.45
lladdress=1580
crossdefine=yes

2. Define the shared library named SANGROUP, and identify the library
manager
server?s name as the primary library manager. Ensure that the library name
agrees with the library name on the library manager:

define library sangroup libtype=shared primarylibmanager=astro

3. Define the drives in the library by using the same names as the drives
on the
library manager. Element addresses are not required for shared libraries
when
defining drives on the library client.

define drive sangroup drivea
define drive sangroup driveb

Note: We recommend that you define all the drives in the shared library to
the
library client and library manager servers.

4. Define a path from the library client server to each drive:

define path judy drivea srctype=server desttype=drive
library=sangroup device=/dev/rmt/4mt
define path judy drivebsrctype=server desttype=drive
library=sangroup device=/dev/rmt/5mt

For more information about paths, see ?Defining Paths? on page 94.

5. Define at least one device class that is associated with the shared
library. Set
the mount wait times to different values for each server.

define devclass tape library=sangroup devtype=3570 mountretention=2
mountwait=10

6. Define the storage pool, BACKTAPE, that will use the shared library.

define stgpool backtape tape maxscratch=50

Should be getting all of it from the library manager. We are using this
setup in production, and it is working fine.

According to documentation, on library manager is defined library and
drives as usual (local) with parameter shared=yes in library definition.
On library client, there should be defined library with libtype=shared and
drives and drivepath but without element parameter.

How can library client use drives in shared library if it does not have
drive definition? It get it from library manager?

Thanks for your reply

In TSM server 5.x you have to define the drives (or rather the drivepaths)
on the library manager and not on the library client. The only definition
you have on the libraryclient is the shared library. All drive definitions
are on the library manager.

Karel

Onderwerp: Library sharing setup problem


Hello TSM-ers,
I have test environment in which I want to setup library sharing. My
environment is as follows:
TSM server 5.1.5.4 on AIX 5.1 connected to SAN
TSM server 5.1.6.2 os Solaris 9 connected to SAN
IBM 3583 LTO library with two LTO drives connected to SAN


On AIX TSM server I defined library and drives as usual.
Then I setup server-to-server communication and both servers are able to
comunicate.
On Solaris server I defined LTO library with libtype=shared and with
primary TSM server which is on AIX.

Now, when I want to define drives for that shared library (according to
manual) I get following error message:

ANR8403E DEFINE DRIVE: Operation not allowed for SHARED libraries.

Did I missed something? What I am doing wrong?
All steps I was doing according to manual.

Thanks
