I've been poking around IBM's web site, trying to find out if the Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) server is still supported for VM. I know it hasn't been enhanced in years. I just want to know if it's still supported. I think the answer is "no". I found these two documents:
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=663&context=SSGSG7&uid=swg21 052217&loc=en_US&cs=utf-8&lang=en http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=663&context=SSGSG7&dc=D600&u id=swg21251347&loc=en_US&cs=UTF-8&lang=en The first says that the TSM server for VM/ESA and z/VM V5.2 is really at the V3.1.2 TSM server level. The second says that V5.2 went out of support on 7 Apr 2007. Taken together, I think that means that the ancient V3.1.2 server for VM, relabeled as 5.2, is out of support. Is that correct?
