The other thing to watch for, is the values in your ADSM copypool
definition. Since the DB backup contains the timestamp, you will never get
multiple versions of the backup so if you want them to disappear right away,
make sure that your retain only and versions deleted parameters are set to
0
What about a del vol with the discarddata parameter set to yes ? This
should erase the reference to any files thought to be stored on the offline
volume(s).

I believe that the best practice would be to do the following
For Windows NT:
1. Remove the NT services using dsmcutil remove /name:''.

3. Install the new 4.1.2 client, and move the dsm.opt file to the
correct location (:program files\tivoli\tsm\bac
When we moved our NT clients from 3.7x to 4.1x, an upgrade left behind some

uninstall/install option for a cleaner implementation.

Joel,
we backup 3 Windows boxes through a firewall but no MSCS.
What we did is start a backup (manually or scheduled) and check at the firewall
which packets were dropped. This way we found which ports needed to be accepted. We
needed several test runs until we found all affected ports.
