TSM Manager is pretty light weight. Most of its actual load will be incurred on the TSM server as queries are made. I'd think a $250 CompUSA special would do the trick nicely.
Admin Center's biggest issue is that it runs on the Integrated Service Console, which is a WebSphere implementation. We know this as "gratuitous waste of resources", which still incurs load on the TSM server. On 06.03.09 at 15:56 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

We are looking into TsmManager as an alternative to the Administration Center. The vendor's Web site lists the supported operating systems, but I have so far not found any information on requirements for memory and processor speed. Is this information available somewhere?
