Two gotchas with the Mac OS X client:
1. Filenames longer than 32 characters will not back up.

Without any report from the client that they have been skipped. Also,
they cannot be archived or seen in the selection list for archiving....
Even worse is that Tivoli obviously thinks this is a wad, since they
have not shown any effort in fixing this.

2. For the scheduler to work, a root-equivalent account must be logged
into
the client.

I have not seen the scheduler work even while I was logged in. Stopped
trying after a few days. Know to Tivoli from day one and still
unfixed :-(
