Anyone heard about the Technical Guide redbook for TSM 5.2? Even a draft??

We didn't have a hang problem with 5.1.6.5 and then we upgraded yesterday.
Now backups are crawling and we have a hang problem. We're still trying to
figure out what's wrong.

If you are sharing the 3494, that problem largely disappears in
5.1.7.1. In earlier versions I would see some sort of unavailable or
inaccessible message with all drives empty.

Hi all
5.2 came out this summer so does that mean that 5.1 will be out of support around june
next year?. I've (tried) to search ibm.com but could not find an answer. The end of
support matrix only lists 4.1 and 4.2.
Thanks

I'll second that. We were able to create a dsm.opt file in the program
files\tivoli\tsm\config directory and have it moved to the baclient
directory on the target machine. This stopped working with V5.2.0.2.

I know that this is supported in 5.2 without having to logically partition
