Hello TSMrs, We are running two AIX TSM servers at 5.1.7.0. - tsm1 and tsm2. They share a 3494 library, and tsm1 is the library master. We plan to upgrade tsm1 initially to 5.2.3.0, and in a few weeks upgrade tsm2. This seems to be a valid combination with the library master at 5.2.3 and the library client at 5.1.7 according to the readme file. We are not able to test this prior to actually doing the upgrade, so it would be comforting to hear if anyone has actually had a similar situation.
>From the readme----- **************************************************************************** **** * $$2 Added library sharing compatibility * **************************************************************************** **** Version 5.2.2 Servers acting as a library manager are now backwards compatible with version 5.1 and 4.2 servers acting as a library client. Version 5.2.2 servers acting as library clients remain incompatible with version 5.1 and 4.2 servers acting as library managers. When upgrading multiple servers participating in library sharing to version 5.2, the servers acting as library managers must be upgraded first to maintain compatibility among the servers.
