Wanda, I don't like surprises on computers. Don't keep us in suspense, what does it do to our TSM database??

Perhaps you are confusing the "maintenance" area of the FTP server with the "patches" area? The patches area has all of these; the maintenance area has only 12. Since a patch level doesn't normally make it to the maintenance area, we appear to be in particularly strange and distressing times. > We connot upgrade every month or so, it is therefore important to all of > us to get stabilized versions. I agree. I wish Tivoli had a commitment to do this. The availability of patches that correct problems is good, but it has been several months since a maintenance level has been produced, and, IMHO, *years* since a workable client has been produced for my environment. I'll admit to not understanding "system objects" and their backup and restore, but providing restore of only the most recent registry backup may eventually make us rethink *SM as one of our backup/recovery solutions. Oh yea, being apparently unable to *backup* system objects to the most recent and supported *SM VM server is even worse. Sorry for being such a stick-in-the-mud, Wayne T.
