Thanks for the warning; I wasn't aware of this and it's going to save me some
grief!
I just looked in the client install guide, and it says " As part of the Windows
client installation process, one or more Microsoft C++ redistributable packages
are installed, if they are not already installed on the Windows workstation."
But it doesn't tell me *what* packages are needed so I can check if they are
already installed and find out if I'm exposed to this problem, nor is it listed
on the web pages in the system requirements.
Angela, can we get this documented in the manual please?
Thanks!
Wanda

Subject: [ADSM-L] TSM BA installer rant
As many has experienced the 7.1 BA client for Windows not only requires a
reboot, it will in the middle of the install reboot right into your face
without any warning or prompt. On top of this it will do so despite you telling
it not to. The same goes for the TDP SQL client btw.
Cause is some C++ Windows things that must be installed for the GUI to work.
For the BA client there is a warning in the Info Center on this. For the TDP it
is not so clear, that crucial information is hidden in a technote.
IBM therefore thinks they are not to blame but in practise a lot of users fall
in that trap and breach their SLAs all over the place. With a GUI one has
certain expectations on how it should behave and if no unprompted reboot
happened in earlier versions why should it happen now?
My opinion on this:
1. IBM should set as a design principle that no customer server should
ever need a reboot when installing, upgrading or removing TSM software.
2. There should be no exceptions, but if there are at least make the
installer prompt a warning so that the user can delay the reboot until
service hours.
3. Software versions that will reboot a server without warning should be
immediately removed from PA and other repositories until they are fixed.
