We have to update the servers to 4.1 or at least 3.7.3.x first and then we
have 30,000 client's to upgrade. Believe me it's not an impossible task but
we will be running 4.1 server on NT for a good 6 months before 4.1 client
will be ready for prime time. Until then we will run 3.1.0.6.
We have to do some tweaking to fix the "limitations" of TSM in our
environment to make it more user proof and get the product through all the
red tape involved in changing client code in our environment.
Just my thoughts.

Subject: Re: aix 3.1.0.7 client with 4.1.x server
Not only isn't it supported, but please bear in mind that 3.1
will be going out of service in January 2001 (right around the
corner).
I would recommend upgrading to supported software levels rather
than trying to use an unsupported configuration (even if you
could make it work).
Best regards,

"The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked."
Is anyone backing up an AIX node using ADSM client level 3.1.0.7 to
a 4.1.x
TSM Server? If yes, have you done a restore.
As I read the web page
http://www.tivoli.com/support/storage_mgr/compatibility.html
the ADSM client is "not supported"; but it doesn't say that it won't
work.
