The install was done manually, I downloaded the install image from an 
install server to the default location on the c partition.  When the setup 
program ran it sometimes asked for a network path for a shared area which 
has the install image on (but not used during the install process) but 
I've no idea why it would ask for this.  If I mapped an area to this share 
and attempted the install again nothing would happen at all?!

AW: Upgrade to 5.1.7  from 4.1.2






have you tried to load down the file to the local c: drive, make the 
extract to the default install folder tsm_images (or another local folder) 
and install then?

Betreff: Upgrade to 5.1.7 from 4.1.2


Hi, I've been attempting an upgrade to TSM 5.1.7 from 4.1.2 recently. It's
been fine until this weekend when attempting to upgrade the majority of my
NT4 clients.   Some of the upgrades worked but on other clients they
didn't!  Very frustrating, all the clients have identical builds.

The message claims it can't map to the network drive where the client
install msi file is located and shows the path to a shared area which
isn't used for the install.  The install image was downloaded to the
default area on the c partition.  I tried mapping to the shared area but
this didn't help at all (nothing happened during an attempted install in
this case).

I've exhausted all ideas I have, if anyone has had any experiences or can
give some advice please let me know.

Thanks, Marc.
