Hi Christian,

Could you send me that Presentation too please.  TSM Reporting has 
always been a pain-point for me.

Thanks

Hi Jim,
I will send you a powerpoint presentation I present at Tivoli User Group 
(Sweden) how you setup TIP and ITM for TSM.

But answer to your question, you need a DB2 to archive the Historical data so 
you can create reports.

Ämne: TSM 6.2 Admin Center and Reporting

Hi All,



I am trying to install 2 TSM version 6.2 add-ons.  The first is Admin
Center, and the second is Tivoli Storage Manager Reporting and Monitoring.
I can't make heads or tails of the documentation for either product and
neither is working properly.



After, I installed the Reporting piece, it then asks me to create a DB2
database.  Why?  If this is for TSM 6.x, shouldn't the db2 database be
created automatically?  What good is this so called-reporting program if you
have to build everything from scratch anyway?



Admin Center is even worse.  It won't install at all.  It just gives me a
message that says "Deployment Engine Failed to Initialize.  Please check
with the log files for a more complete description of the failure.".  The
only problem is, there are no log files.



I am running the installation on a VM running windows 2k3 server.  Ram and
disk space are not an issue.  Any suggestions/help will be greatly
appreciated.   Thanks!
