    Backup Set Name: MAANDBACKUPSET.112735191
    Data Type: File

    Device Class Name: TAPE_CLASS

    Has Table of Contents (TOC)?: Yes
     
    When I run the same command (dsmadmc -id=username -password=passwd -outfile=backupset.txt "q backupset") I get output like this:
    Node Name      Backup Set Name        Data Type         Date/Time              Retention   Device                Description        Has Table

    How is this possible? I want the first output, but not through running ssh

    It could be because of a difference in your terminal type  when you SSH versus when you are logged in interactively.  Do this:

     

    In other words, the output from 'dsmadmc is formatted based on terminal type.

     

    Things to try

    ssh user@IP "echo $TERM"   #comare to echo $TERM when you login interactively

    login and export TERM=dumb   #or some other terminal type
