Re: Different treatment of ANS and ANE messages in the server activity log

Rejean, thanks for pointing this APAR out. Indeed it does appear to provide generic ANS --> ANE conversion for newer messages that are not in an older server's catalog (but the resulting ANE message is in the language of the client, not in the language of the server). Best regards, Andy Raibeck I

Fran The new process is simplified and allows the use of a generic bootable image. We have two images - one for x86 clients and one for x64 clients. These get updated periodically as we deploy new client versions on the hosts which necessitates installing new clients in the images. We ironed out

The ANS message appears in the activity log if the corresponding ANE message does not exist in the server's message catalog. This can occur if your TSM client is newer, and issues messages that do not exist in the older server's message catalog. Best regards, Andy Raibeck IBM Software Group Tivol
