 +
 +To solve the path library ​ issue, please apply the following steps:
 +
 +1. Use the IBM-installed Java version, located at the Linux installation location for Java: export JAVA_HOME=/​opt
 +<​code>​
 +/​tivoli/​tsm/​tdpvmware/​common/​jre/​jre
 +</​code>​
 +
 +2.Set the relevant environment variables.
 +
 +   a. Ensure that the JAVA_HOME environment variable is exported correctly:
 +<​code>​
 +    JAVA_HOME=<​jre-or-jdk-install-dir>​
 +</​code>​
 +
 + b. Ensure that the PATH environment variable is exported correctly:
 +<​code>​
 +export PATH=$PATH:​$JAVA_HOME/​jre/​bin
 +</​code>​
 +
 +3.Then trace the backup, ​ with the following steps: ​ (The above Java failure is not related to Jackson files) ​
 +
 +A-Enable the Vcsplugin tracing:
 +
 +  1.Edit the log4j.properties located in "/​opt/​tivoli/​tsm/​client/​ba/​bin/​plugins/​vcloudsuite/​sdk/​log4j.properties" ​ with the following options:
 +<​code>​
 +logger.ve.level = TRACE
 +rootLogger.level =TRACE
 +</​code>​
 +
 +B.Enable tracing for the backup:
 +
 +1. Enable VDDK debug log level by editing in file C:\Program Files\Common Files\Tivoli\TSM\IBMVDDK\dsmvddk.opt to have :
 +<​code>​
 +    vixDiskLib.transport.LogLevel = "​6"​
 +    vixDiskLib.nfc.LogLevel = "​6"​
 +</​code>​
 +
 +2. Run the backup VM command with tracing options:
 +<​code>​
 +  dsmc backup VM <​vmname>​–optfile=<​datamover optfile name> -tracefile=c:​\test_vm.trc -traceflags=service,​vm > c:​\test_vm.out
 +
 +dsmc show VM all –optfile=<​datamover optfile name> -tracefile=c:​\show_vm.trc -traceflags=service,​vm > c:​\show_vm.out
 +</​code>​
 +
 +3. Generate a new dsminfo.txt for the data mover node
 +
 +>> by running this command from the BAclient installation directory:
 +<​code>​
 +    dsmc query systeminfo –optfile=<​datamover optfile name> - Generates the ‘dsminfo.txt’ file
 +</​code>​
 +
 +4. Please send :
 +<​code>​
 +dsminfo.txt
 +c:​\test_vm.out
 +test_vm.trc
 +</​code>​
 +
 +d.Vcsplugin.log located in "/​opt/​tivoli/​tsm/​client/​ba/​bin/"​
 +<​code>​
 +c:​\show_vm.out
 +c:​\show_vm.tr
 +</​code>​
