Heh, that's funny, I assumed no help, no command. Silly me... It's
running
right now.

By the way, I have another question, I am looking over my steps for a
migrate install from 5.1.9 to 5.3.1 in win2K server. I've got everything
worked out, except I don't understand how the TSM device drivers are
going
to be installed. Are they included in the TSM 5.3.1 installer
(TSMSRV5310_WIN.exe), or do I need to downloaded another file that is
the
5.3.1 device drivers?

Also, the migrate install instructions for 5.3.1 say to remove the old
TSM
server via the Add/Remove programs, but what about the installed TSM
5.1.9
device drivers? Should I remove those too? Or is the 5.3.1 installer
going
to do that for me?
