The reason to have separate binaries for each instance is that the process in AIX is tied to the binary file and holds it open. Orville L. Lantto

Thank you very much for you help! I read the technote (1052631) Richard pointed out. That doesn't mention copying the dsmserv executable. Any reason why you choose to do so?

Just a separate directory, separate config files, a separate copy of the dsmserv binary and a the appropriate environment to run it in. export DSMSERV_DIR=/usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin export DSMSERV_CONFIG=/usr/tivoli/tsm/server/instance2/dsmserv.opt Our upgrade procedure is to do the primary install and copy the dsmserv binary to each instance directory. Done. Orville L.

I'm running two TSM server instances on an AIX host. Upgrading them from 5.3 to 5.4.0.0 works fine. I installed the 5.4.0.0 code through smitty, changed the /usr/tivoli/tsm/server path to the second instance and install the 5.4.0.0 code here, using the force (-F) flag. Both instances are on 5.4.0.0 at that point. Now I'm trying the same trick for the upgrade to 5.4.2.0. Upgrading the first instance works fine, but since this is an update, the -F flage is not allowed by smitty during the upgrade of the second instance: Force Apply Failures -------------------- The following is a list of fileset updates. Updates cannot be specified from the command line when the force flag (-F) is used in combination with the apply flag (-a). Maybe an AIX expert (and I now there are plenty of them on this list) can help me with this one? Thank you VERY much in advance!!!!
