If you are referring to the Windows 4.2.1.15 patch, it's out there as of
some time yesterday morning.

Are you sure you are looking in the
storage/tivoli-storage-management/patches directory structure? I just
checked, and it's still there. The complete directory is:

storage/tivoli-storage-management/patches/client/v4r2/Windows/WinNT/v421/

Then look for the files whose names begin with IP22373_15.

The latest client does not seem to be on the ftp site at this time. Is it
something we can look for today?

It has already been acknowledged that this is indeed a program bug. The
APAR, IC31844, was erroneously opened as a documentation problem (i.e. the
change in behavior was not documented). This is not the case, though, and
the problem has since been changed do "program error" vs. "doc error".

The problem is fixed in the latest patch, 4.2.1.15, now available on the
usual FTP site.

Yes, is there?  I read through that APAR, and one cannot conceivably visit
hundreds, possibly thousands of clients, and exclude all files that may
fail.  This behavior, in my opinion, is a bug.  If I upgraded to this
code, close to 100% of my client schedules would show up as failed.

This may be a nice feature to add, but not as a failed schedule.  Perhaps
some other completion status could be set, or inquired (via q event).
Calling the backup a failure does not seem correct, IMHO.
