Wanda,
Yeah, the Web Admin client is pretty lame.
That's why I use Excel and an ODBC link to the database. It's read only,
but I have full filtering, searching, sorting, etc. of Excel to work with
what comes back from the queries.
I have a spreadsheet called GUI_ODBC and it includes the embedded Microsoft
Query queries. I just select the page of info I'm interested in (like
"volumes") and click the Refresh icon. In about three seconds I have a new
list of volumes with all fields displayed.
If I have to do something with a particular volume, I usually resort to the
command line.

I STILL run the old 3.1 GUI.
The bigger your TSM gets (We are at 550 clients on the largest server),
the more impossible it becomes to use the web admin
because of the lack of filtering and sorting capability.

Subject: Web Admin Interface - grrr
Hi TSM-ers,
Our Network Storage Manager (NSM - 3466) was just upgraded from 4.2.1 to
4.2.2.8.
Now the format of the QUERY SESSION from the lefthand tree OBJECT VIEW /
SERVER /
SESSION has changed from FORMAT=STANDARD to FORMAT=DETAILED.
Instead of one line per session I get now 12 lines. That makes it
impossible
to see what's
going on (§$%&?)
How can we convince Tivoli to create a useful administration interface (be
it GUI or a Java Applet).
Am I the only one who has problems with the admin interface and still
running the old
3.1 Windows GUI?
Kind regards
