Hi Xav, It´s not. CentOS is not....but as it´s RH Enterprise based, usually works great, both as TSM Server and Client.
I am trying to install the lin-tape driver...but there are a zillion versions at the FTP site and I am not sure which one to use.... This is what uname -a shows: Linux tsmserver 2.6.18-164.el5 #1 SMP Thu Sep 3 03:33:56 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Any ideas?

See http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=663&uid=swg21082581 as well. I didn't realise CentOS was on the supported list :)
