Hi Zoltan,
No real issues to date yet. Most of our TSM problems have been due to lack
of access to the clients or the firewall settings not being correct (both
of these are the responsibilities other teams).
I was really just looking for some suggestions for making sure the clients
are running effectively and smootly.
But Richard Sims pointed me in the direction of the ADSM-L archives (which
I did not know about) and that's proven really helpful already (only had a
browse through today.).
Thanks,
Werner

What your issues/problems?.
We backup hundreds of Linux, Solaris, Netware, Windows, IRIX and Mac
clients daily.
Our Linux of choice is exclusively RedHat with versions/kernels from
2.4.2-28 (client 5.2) up to 2.6.9-89 (client 6.1).

Subject: TSM Clients on Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Hello all,
The business is in the process of building a number of new Linux clients,
and we will then need to back these up. We are new to Linux, most of the
estate that we backup are Windows, AIX & Netware clients.
I've been able to install the TSM clients on the a few test servers and
these have been backing up without many issues presenting themselves. We
currently use TSM Server 5.5.2.1, and TSM client 5.5.1.4 installed on Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3.
Is anyone else running TSM Clients on Red Hat? I'm looking for suggestions
so we can optimise the option files for these new servers. I've had a look
at a performance redbook IBM have previously pointed me to, but it doesn't
contain anything specific for Linux. IBM have advised there doesn't seem
to be too many problems with performance on Linux, though I would still
like to make sure we have it as streamlined as possible.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Werner
