Hmmmmmm.... I'm sorry to say it - but I'm a bit disappointed! There are a lot of NetWare 6.0 installations out there - and to be honest, there are for most part not much reason to upgrade it for the time being... unless we want our backupsystem to support our NOS in future releases :o)
The statement from IBM disappoint me... especially seen in the light, that IBM states to be cooperating closer with Novell now than ever before! - but one can only guess if this is only regarding the Linux product?? Regarding NetWare 6.0 & 6.5 there's a major difference in the filesystem - NetWare 6.5 is running a newer version of NSS, which will not be incorporated in NetWare 6.0 (on this newer version you can among other things use TTS, which allow us to use NSS on SYS:)! Finally - this is not an attempt to start a discussion over a lost case... but merely an expression of oppinion Best regards Flemming -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] vegne af Troy Frank Sendt: 17. januar 2005 21:04 Til: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Emne: Re: SV: V5.3 client and Netware 6.0 TSA600 isn't supported anymore on NW6, and it's never been supported on NW6.5, so you run it at your own risk now. You are correct that there was never a TSA650, they called it TSAFS instead. I've found it pretty safe to run the newest versions of TSAFS, you just have to be careful sometimes to set the cache memory allocation for it to be under 25%. There's several TID's about it on support.novell.com. Troy Frank Network Services University of Wisconsin Medical Foundation 608.829.5384 >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1/17/2005 11:35:52 AM >>> I agree. There have been numerous discussions and recommendations to avoid TSAFS and continue to use TSANDS/TSA600. Speaking of, AFAIK, the TSA modules for NW 6 and 6.5 are the same. I don't recall seen a TSA650 ??

They seem to be mostly ironed out now though.

Novell placed a very quick end-of-life to this version as well; those who ever used it know why. As a result, TSM client versions 4 & 5 have never supported NW 5.0. The same situation may be true here; weren't there a pile of troubles with the versions of TSA that came with 6.0? -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED] ) Berbee Information Networks Office 262.521.5627 Confidentiality Notice follows: The information in this message (and the documents attached to it, if any) is confidential and may be legally privileged.
