Hi, I have been using 5.5.0.0 (I know base level not good for production) and have just gone to 5.5.1 . No problems to date. In fact it seems more stable and faster at daily tasks. The upgrade process is amazingly fast and efficient.
Simple test were backup and restore of each client, TDP, Exchange etc. Environment = AIX on P570 LPAR, EMC SAN, TS3310 Libr 108 Slots, 4 LTO3 Drives.

I've already tested this upgrade on my test machine, and it worked fine. This absence of any problem made me even a bit suspicious. :-) My questions: - Which kind of tests would you recommend performing before you'd declare a new TSM version 'ready for production'? I've read Technote 1196013 and the relevant section in ADSM.QuickFacts. Performing a simple backup and restore from different clients worked fine, LAN-free is not used. - Do you know of any pitfalls in 5.5.1.0 or should it be safe to use on the server?
