We run TSM 5.4 on a Linux VM under VMware. It's just for our test lab
so we don't have any stressful throughout stats to report, but it
works fine.

Yes, been there, done that. My boss is looking to consolidate all
our servers on one or two platforms, i.e. all Sun and VMware virtual
servers, for a less expensive disaster recovery plan. We currently
run our TSM server on a pSeries LPAR.

One reason you won't find much about this, is that TSM makes it very
easy to run more than one TSM server instance on a single OS image.
This
will be inherently more efficient than virtualization via VMware, Sun
LDOM, IBM z/VM, or IBM pSeries LPAR. Instructions are in the TSM
Installation Guide and Administrators Guide.

Hi All,
I found this document describing the virtual machines supported for
TSM servers, below. Is there anything newer on this? I don't see
anything about TSM servers and supported virtual machines in the V6
announcement.
For instance, is running a TSM server on a Sun Solaris LDOM
supported? Or running a TSM server as a VMware guest?
Anyone doing anything like this?
