We have been running TSM server 6.1.2.1 on AIX 6.1 for a couple of months and needed to upgrade to 6.1.3 for the fix for a severe NDMP/TOC performance problem.
Downloaded the 6.1.3 package, ran the upgrade procedure and lo and behold, the performance problem was no better. At that time, I also discovered that we were still running version 6.1.2.1 as shown by both logging in with DSMADMC and the output of the Q STATUS command. At this point, I opened a problem with Tivoli support. They requested I rerun the upgrade and send them screen shots and logs of the process as well as a checksum output of the downloaded package. Again, all looked normal except that this time it ran much quicker and I received a message indicating DB2 9.5 had already been installed and would not be re-installed. And, again, the version ended up being 6.1.2.1. Two weeks ago, the problem was forwarded to a different support group who looked at it until Monday when I received a message saying they had decided the best way to get 6.1.3 installed at this point was to run the ./Uninstall_Tivoli_Storage_Manager program from the /opt/tivoli/tsm/_uninst directory and then run the upgrade again. Did that today with the same results with the additional problem of now having no B/A client on the machine and no DSMADMC. My question is; has anyone successfully installed 6.1.3? Does the output from a Q STATUS command show 6.1.3? Thanks Sam Sheppard San Diego Data Processing Corp. (858)-581-9668
