The upgrades from 5.3.X upward should go smoothly. Follow the instructions in the relevant TSM server installation guide. The first maintenance level for TSM server 5.5 has yet to appear, and I NEVER install base code of anything in a production environment. 80% of bugs are in base code. In a similar vein, I NEVER install a patch level of TSM in a production environment unless I'm trying to fix a specific problem associated with that patch. Patches are not nearly as thoroughly tested as maintenance levels. In other words, you should be installing 5.4.2.0 on your TSM server. TSM server 5.3.X.X goes out of support on 30 April 2008. Use and abuse. -- Mark Stapleton CDW Berbee System engineer 7145 Boone Avenue North, Suite 140 Brooklyn Park MN 55428-1511 763-592-5963 www.berbee.com
