Networker Command for adding DB2 Client

Question

Hello, Does any one have a handy command or script that can help us add  DB (DB2) Clients .. I have information with  ' instance name ', path for cfg ' file . etc.. I tried some thing like this listed below  but it doesnot have a parameter to pass through for instance path & db2.cfg file .I was able to add client without it but was getting error . Please see screenshot put the client information into a file: # cat mynewclient.file                  create type: NSR client;                         name: mynewclient;                       server: myserver;             archive services: Disabled;                     schedule: Default;                browse policy: Month;             retention policy: Quarter;                    directive: NT with compression directives;                        group: mygroup1, mygroup2;                     save set: All;                         ndmp: No;                      aliases: mynewclient, mynewclient.mydomain.com;                         storage nodes: nsrserverhost; Then you can feed the file to nsradmin with:nsradmin -i mynewclient.file

I guess that you have a NW 9.x server. If so, NW does not accpt the 'browse policy' any longer.

1. DB backups need to have backup command, which will be binary from NMDA with suffix and path to cfg file on client side.

2. Client save set is really specific. Please check DB2 part of NMDA guide.

3. You really don't need directve for that client. It will not be applied either
