We just upgraded several AIX clients to TSM 3.7. I noticed that all the upgraded nodes

These are suspect because all the nodes have the same error message after the

Eric,
Do your customers know that AIX 4.1 and 4.2 are also unsupported? Why worry
about the ADSM/TSM client if the OS running underneath has the same
problem??? I'd really recommend your customers to investigate their
migration to AIX 4.3. ASAP. BTW: if your customer wants new HW (systems,

My experience is no problem with the OS390 ADSM/TSM server upgrade. I would
