Hi Lee
I have been asking the same question, and here what's come up:
There is no roadmap since we have no plans at this time to implement this.
I would recommend that you or any other customers interested in TSM
support for Novell GroupWise (or for any new feature, for that matter)
open a requirement through their IBM representative or SHARE.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
So for the time being, there are a couple of ways to do a backup of GroupWise while
it's open:
*
You could use a Open File Manager (I've used OFM from StBernard - works
fine!)...
*
Or you could use the Stand-by-server product...
*
or you could wait for NetWare 6.5, which will come with the ability to make a
snap-shot mirroring of an volume as a built in feature.
... as a final remark, I can tell you that I have been having contact to a guy named
Richard Bliss who have been with GroupWise since the days of WordPerfect... He has
gone solo these days, but has promised me to see if he could make a contact between
IBM and Novell... The funny thing is, that if IBM was interested they most certain
would get the API from Novell (they are especially open for that in the GroupWise
division!) - but it seems that IBM don't want to support this feature... to bad, cause
it would add some benefit to TSM as a backupproduct!

Emne: Tivoli and GWTSA.NLM
I was wondering if anyone has any experience with using Tivoli to backup their Group
Wise 6.0 system. From what I understand Tivoli does not support the GWTSA.NLM. Are
there any plans to include this or has someone devised a work around for this?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
