Andy, thank you for the detailed note on Friday afternoon.
An open note to TSM product managers:
A problem very similar to this one got into the ADSM Windows client a few
years ago, and caused significant grief to ADSM sites. I find it
distressing to see a similar problem show up again. Sure, it is probably a
different bug, but what it indicates is that insufficient quality control
was added following the last occurrence of this bug. If a test for this
had been added to the quality control process, this bug would have been
detected before the code had been distributed. This does make me wonder
what, if any, testing is done before the code is made available for
distribution. If you cannot learn from the past, you (and all of us) will
be forever condemned to repeat the same experiences again and again.
