Stef,

The ISC is not required to use the Administration Center?

Unfortunately not...
The ISC is the base and the Administration Center is only a "plug in".

The ISC is like you order one bouillon cube and they delivers the
bouillon cube on a freight train.

Thanks

Welcome to the world of the new enterprise solutions :)

Personally, I think the ISC will is a real disadvantage.
We have a lot of small customers and having 1 GB of ram only for the ISC is
ridiculous.  We have an inhouse developed set of perl script that we use to
monitor TSM and to do some administration that's not so easy to do with the
web administrative interface (handling tapes, client option sets and so on).
I think we will develop some more scripts and never use the ISC.  Maybe we
will never install it at all.
