Hi,
Here is the definition of the -r command line option for tmadmin:
-r
The -r option instructs tmadmin to enter the bulletin board as a client instead of as the administrator; in other words, it requests read-only access. This option is useful if you want to leave the administrator slot unoccupied. Note: If you decide to use this option, however, be aware that you will not get all the information you get by running tmadmin without the -r option. Specifically, tmadmin -r does not report load values for servers running at remote sites.
Only one tmadmin process can be the administrator at a time. When the -r option is specified by a user other than the Oracle Tuxedo administrator and security is turned on, the user is prompted for a password

The TMADMIN_CAT:119 is a warning message not an error. It is a reminder that the usage of the "-r" option restricts you to a subset of tmadmin commands. The "-r" option is used because only one "administrator" can be
running tmadmin at a time. The script you wish to use should just be executing commands that do not require you to be the administrator(e.g. print commands).
If you execute something like "echo psr | tmadmin -r" from a UNIX command line shell it should print out. to stdout, the servers that are running.
If you still have questions, let us know: then tmadmin command/commands you want to execute, the release of Tuxedo you are using, and whether you are using MP or SHM configuration.
Regards,
Bob Finan
