I got OC up and running, and hooked in as spokes our three TSM's that are at v6.3. Those 3 instances have +1600 nodes. Other than that I haven't done anything with it yet, so I don't know yet if it's really slow or OK.
This AIX lpar has 4GB mem, and also runs our mostly unused AdminCenter. It's interesting that my db2archivelog dir is full! I've got to get a backup defined and run!

Now need to create the v7.1.1 TSM instance, then install/config Op center. The system I'm using is a AIX lpar with 4GB memory. It's running some other things, but nothing big/heavy (interfaces to some of our storage arrays). Will be interesting to see what a completely empty db size is after creating it.

I run the installer with the cmd in the install manual: ./install.sh -c -acceptLicense -vmargs "-DBYPASS_TSM_REQ_CHECKS=true" but it still performs the validation checks and won't let me past the errors. The problem is that I only have 4GB of memory, not the 12 it wants. After getting the validation errors, it only gives options for BACK and CANCEL. I can't find any way around this. Any thoughts on now to get past the validation checks? =========== = install log =========== ./install.sh -c -acceptLicense -vmargs "-DBYPASS_TSM_REQ_CHECKS=true" Preprocessing the input. =====> IBM Installation Manager < . . . snip. . . > =====> IBM Installation Manager> Install Select packages to install: 1.
