I was just bitten by the UNICODE issue ("fioScanDirEntry(): Can't map
object") with the TSM 4.2 client and a W2K server client. I did not
realize there was a requirement to use the 4.2 client that also required
the 4.2 server (no, I cannot install the TSM 4.2 server on OS390. Since it
is a COST upgrade, I could not justfy it. The only way I got to 4.1.3 was
because 3.1 had long expired).
In fact, I thing the UNICODE issue has caused this client to go from 4-5GB
backup to over 20GB (I canceled it after I saw all the errors in the
DSMERROR.LOG file as well as the numerous blank and screwy entries in the
DSMSCHED.LOG file).
No, I can not ask the server owner to turn off UNICODE support since this
is a university (note the "versity" part, as in "diversity").
Any way to get around this issue ? So far, the only thing I can figure
is going back to the 4.1.3 client.
