Answer from Tivoli: IC53092: Abstract: Unable to install TSM BA Client on Mac OS X 10.4.10 Problem Description: When attempting to install TSM BA Client on Mac OS X 10.4.10, the install process does not allow the installation to take place. The installer indicates that "You cannot install Tivoli Storage Manager on this volume. Tivoli Storage Manager requires Mac OS X 10.4.3 or greater" and will not allow the user to progress past the 'Select a Destination' screen. Local Fix: Perform the following steps to bypass the check for operating system level: 1) drag the Tivoli Storage Manager installation to the desktop 2) right click (or control-click) the TSM icon 3) Select 'show package contents' 4) Browse to the Contents folder 5) open the 'distribution.dist' file in TextEdit 6) change line 53 from: result = my.target.systemVersion.ProductVersion >= '10.4.3'; to result = true 7) Save the distribution.dist file 8) Run the Tivoli Storage Manager installation as normal.

Checking to see if anyone else has this problem with TSM v5.4.1.0 for an Intel Mac... I just upgraded a Mac to 10.4.10, but the TSM client installation is failing, stating that I must be at OS X 10.4.3 or higher. I don't think the installer is parsing the trailing '10' correctly... I have not tried an installation with 5.4.0.4 since going to 10.4.10, but I would presume that the same check is in place. Gretchen Thiele Princeton University
