Kelly, you have at least two options in front: - upgrade TSM server and keep using old clients on old NetWare boxes. Yes, this is unsupported but does not automatically mean it would not work. - move those Netware boxes to a small separate TSM server at v4.1.x.
Zlatko Krastev IT Consultant Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: Interim Solution for Novell Backups TSM 4.1.5 AIX 4.3.3 We are still using Novell Netware 4.11 on some of our major servers, including our GroupWise email system. We are phasing out Novell and bringing in MS servers over the next 1-2 years. However, we are going to have to move forward with our TSM upgrade since support for 4.1 is ending for 3466 users at the end of October. We will pick up the new MS servers in TSM as we go but management wants an interim, inexpensive solution for backing up the Novell servers (which are still running TSM 3.7) in the meantime. We are just going to pull them off of TSM. Does anyone have any ideas? Does TSM have another option that would work in the interim? (Keeping in mind that we don't won't all of our other servers in an unsupported platform while we wait for our Novell servers to disappear). I know this is a strange scenario... Thanks so much!
