Hi All, I am just - finally - being allowed to upgrade my TSM server from 4.2 to 5.2. So I'm reading the README and come to the recommendation to run CLEANUP BACKUPGROUPS. Now fortunately I was far enough backlevel that I missed all of that issue at the time, but it got me thinking about code quality.
Long time subscribers to this list will recall that TSM code quality was somewhat average for the whole of the 4.2 series - well it may not have been in general, but there were a lot of complaints about many aspects of 4.2 and the bugs that bit us all. Compare that with the number of complaints about 5.1 and 5.2 - the traffic has dropped off significantly and we are back to talking about ptfs that have already been raised and configuration and how-to issues. That is a dramatic improvement on the behalf of the TSM code cutters/testers and QA folks. And it deserves some recognition. Well done gang. Steve Harris AIX and TSM Admin Queensland Health Brisbane, Australia ps just one teensy little gripe - you've got to make the library client backward compatible with the library server - its really hard to test and implement properly when the compatibility is the other way around. *********************************************************************************** This email, including any attachments sent with it, is confidential and for the sole use of the intended recipients(s).
