The relatively new TSM admin at the site I am currently implementing Spectrum Protect is keen on getting the decommission function (in the OC) because they decommission at least 5 development VM's every week and don't like deleting filespaces from the commandline on multiple servers.
I haven't heard of any major issues in 7.1.3.0, the download is still up...can any of you think of a reason to hold back on the production upgrade to 7.1.3.0?
