Now I'm confused. We bought 5.1.0 from a reseller, and we do have passport
advantage. But I can't find 5.3.0 anywhere on the ftp site at all. Are you
saying it's on there somewhere? Or are you saying that 5.3.0 is going to
cost us extra money?

5.3.0 is chargeable, if you have passport advantage you can download
from that site. (How did you get your 5.1.0 license?) Only 5.3.0 has the
base license.

The tech doc presentation says that only server 5.3.0 has the licensing
modules that are needed to install the license files, and that I should
first upgreade 5.1.9 to 5.3.0, and then do an upgrade to 5.3.1.

However, I cannot find 5.3.0 on tsm's ftp site:

ftp://index.storsys.ibm.com/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance/

Where do I get 5.3.0? And is the tech doc correct, or does the 5.3.1
installer have the licensing package I need?

Again, our OS is win2K server.

Thanks again for the great help.

Excellent Information, thanks Ruth. However, I do have one question:
in
both the install guide and the TSM server upgrade tech note
(1177863),
they say to run the command "Cleanup Backupgroups" on TSM 5.1
before the
upgrade to 5.3, especially "if there are any Windows 2000 or higher
clients that backup up to the TSM server". I can't find this command
anywhere in TSM 5.1.9 server, and 75% of my clients are 2K or
higher, so
I'm stuck wanting to run a command I don't have!?!?

How do you know you don't have it? Have you tried running it? (If you
run 'Help CLEANUP BACKUPGROUPS', you won't see anything; there isn't
a
help for it.)

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?
