Use this command to back up information about device configuration for the server.
You can use the DEVCONFIG server option to specify one or more files in which to store device configuration information. Tivoli® Storage Manager updates the files whenever a device class, library, or drive is defined, updated, or deleted.
At installation, the server options file includes a DEVCONFIG option that specifies a device configuration file named devcnfg.out. Tivoli Storage Manager updates this file whenever a device class, library, or drive is defined, updated, or deleted.
Any administrator can issue this command unless it includes the FILENAMES parameter. If the FILENAMES parameter is specified and the REQSYSAUTHOUTFILE server option is set to YES, the administrator must have system privilege. If the FILENAMES parameter is specified and the REQSYSAUTHOUTFILE server option is set to NO, the administrator must have operator, policy, storage or system privilege.
