  • After the upgrade to version 8.1.10.000, the IBM Spectrum
    Protect Operations Center service may have an incorrect entry
    in the Linux systemctl causing the following errors to be logged
    into the OS system log:
    Jun 23 16:48:55 tsmsrv1 systemd[1]: Reloading.
    Jun 23 16:48:55 tsmsrv1 systemd[1]:
    [/etc/systemd/system/opscenter.service:12] Unknown lvalue
    'Wantedby' in section 'Install'
    The above messages are considered harmless and despite these,
    the Operations Center component will work properly.
    IBM Spectrum Protect versions affected:
    IBM Spectrum Protect Operations Center 8.1.10 on supported Linux
    OS platforms  (which have systemctl installed)
    | MDVREGR 8.1.10-TIV_5608E01UI |
    Additional Keywords:
    TSM "Spectrum Protect" #TS003848466 systemd "unknown ivalue" OC
    service
    

    Local fix

  • The following steps can be used to bypass this behavior:
    1.  cd /etc/systemd/system
    2.  vi opscenter.service
    note: This command will display the service config details (here
    the default path names are used):
    [Unit]
    Description=IBM Spectrum Protect Operation Center Services
    [Service]
    Type=oneshot
    RemainAfterExit=true
    ExecStart=/opt/tivoli/tsm/ui/Liberty/bin/opscenter.rc start
    ExecStop=/opt/tivoli/tsm/ui/Liberty/bin/opscenter.rc stop
    ExecReload=/opt/tivoli/tsm/ui/Liberty/bin/opscenter.rc restart
    [Install]
    [Service]
    Wantedby=multi-user.target
    4.  Remove [Service] from [Install] section
    5.  Make sure the file looks like this (Example with the default
    path names) :
    [Unit]
    Description=IBM Spectrum Protect Operation Center Services
    [Service]
    Type=oneshot
    RemainAfterExit=true
    ExecStart=/opt/tivoli/tsm/ui/Liberty/bin/opscenter.rc start
    ExecStop=/opt/tivoli/tsm/ui/Liberty/bin/opscenter.rc stop
    ExecReload=/opt/tivoli/tsm/ui/Liberty/bin/opscenter.rc restart
    [Install]
    Wantedby=multi-user.target
    OR, depending by the Linux OS/Distribution, the keyword
    'Wantedby' should be written with a 'B' (uppercase B) like this:
    [Unit]
    Description=IBM Spectrum Protect Operation Center Services
    [Service]
    Type=oneshot
    RemainAfterExit=true
    ExecStart=/opt/tivoli/tsm/ui/Liberty/bin/opscenter.rc start
    ExecStop=/opt/tivoli/tsm/ui/Liberty/bin/opscenter.rc stop
    ExecReload=/opt/tivoli/tsm/ui/Liberty/bin/opscenter.rc restart
    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target
    6.  Save the file
    7.  Run the command:  systemctl daemon-reload
