Not recommend as it uses different versions of the same components (baclient, etc.), and updating TSMVE may break the TSM server itself. In my case, DBBackup were broken after VE update due version mismatch.
It is much safer to run VE in a separate virtual machine. Or physical, because you need a LANfree backup. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> On Behalf Of Martin Panggabean Sent: Thursday, March 4, 2021 10:53 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] TSM for VE installation on TSM server Hi everyone, I have no idea if anyone here has ever tried running TSM for VE on the TSM server. To make it short, I was asked by a customer to move their vBackup Storage that is now running on a separate physical server than TSM Server (physical). I have tried to look at documentation but failed to discover if this is possible or not. Beside, they also expect the VM backup will be a LANfree backup similar to the existing setup. Anyone can give an idea if this will work or not? Thanks in advance, Martin Backup Freelance
