The problem is that this link doesn't say which 64 bit windows OS is supported one or both? If you follow then link I provided you'll see that there are now two different 64 bit operating systems from Microsoft. First there is the Itanium version which is not run on x86 processors usually refered to as Windows 2003 Itanium. Then there is the x86 version which runs on the AMD opteron and Intel EM64T CPU's which are x86 processors usually referred to as x64 Windows. For everyone here is what the IBM site says:
Windows® Server 2003 - Standard Edition - 32 bit, Enterprise Edition - 32 bit, Datacenter Edition - 32 bit, Enterprise Edition - 64 bit, Datacenter Edition - 64 bit, Windows 2000 Professional, Server, Advanced Server, Datacenter Server.

I looked at the latest readmes and I didn't see any mention specifically of x64. For more information on what x64 is see: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/64bit/bulletin.mspx Basically it is a version of windows that will run both 32 bit and 64 bit applications. The "Tivoli Field Guide - Tivoli Storage Manager Recovery Techniques Using Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE)" mentions x64 so I'm assuming Tivoli has tested on it. I'm just wondering if it is officially supported to run the 32 bit TSM client on this system? Also, are there plans to create a 64 bit client for it? I see that someone else has posted a question to this list twice in June but there were no responses on adsm.org that I could find.
