Hi Wanda,

It's in the Installtion Guide (TSM 7.1.1) :

such as the operating system and the required memory. Do not issue this
command on a production server.

For new installations, issue the following command:
./install.sh -g -vmargs "-DBYPASS_TSM_REQ_CHECKS=true"

Otherwise, update the following file to add the -DBYPASS_TSM_REQ_CHECKS=true

added on a new line after the -vmargs flag.
../Installation Manager/eclipse/ibmim.ini

For the 7.1 package there is a parm to bypass the min requirements on install, 
I'll see if I can find that link.

What has been suggested by sneaky folks, is that you could very easily
install TSM 7.1.1 on a tiny doesn't-run-any-backups TSM server, to be
your HUB server.  Then it could manage a "spoke" TSM 6.3.4 or higher
server.

Gee, just what we were talking about!

To ask the next sneeky/unofficial question, just what would the resources on a 
VM need to be for a minimal TSM to just run TOC (memory, disk for db2, other)?

Thanks

Rick

For all the things they are adding into the TOC (TSM Operations Center), they 
had to add new tables and functions in the TSM server itself (Which is why it 
has some cool stuff we've never had before!  The TOC developers are just 
awesome!)

That means you always have to have the TOC talking to a TSM server at a level that has 
those mods, shown in the table that Erwann provided the link for below, and I suspect it 
will be the same for 7.1.1 and likely going forward.  But that's just for the top level 
or "hub" TOC TSM server.  You can have a hub-and-spoke configuration.

The TOC is very lightweight, and if you have a single TSM sever the most common thing is 
to run the TOC on the same machine as your TSM server.  But the TOC can manage other 
"spoke" TSM servers, as that link below shows.

What has been suggested by sneaky folks, is that you could very easily install TSM 7.1.1 
on a tiny doesn't-run-any-backups TSM server, to be your HUB server.  Then it could 
manage a "spoke" TSM 6.3.4 or higher server.

And FWIW that tiny TSM can even be a VM.  The TSM server is supported on VMware 
if there are no tape drivERs in use.

The ISC is on the FTP site, under Maintenance\admincenter.
But I don't recommend it.

You should know it has been "stabilized" at 6.3.  There is a 7.1 version on the 
site which has been patched to work with a 7.1 server, but it has no 7.1 function and it 
will never be updated any more.

It also has never been upgraded to run with any IE later than IE8 or
Firefox 3.6.  (Although I've gotten good results using IE10, press
F12, then choosing IE8 compatibility mode.)

Just don't go the ISC route.  It's dead. (FINALLY!!!!)

And, the Operations Center which came out Sep 12 (the 7.1.1 version) really has 
a lot of the functions you want, including client scheduling now, and will be 
further developed.
They have a live demo up that you can show your Winders folks.

Guess I am referring to the isc.

We are running tsm 6.2.5 on redhat enterprise 6.1.

I use the command line client exclusively, but the windows folks want something 
gui.

I went looking, but its been so long since I used it, where do you find the isc?

Are you thinking of the ISC? I started out administering TSM through that, but 
it was finicky enough that I ended up using the CLI and haven't looked back 
since.

I don't really care, but my boss wants me to evaluate gui tsm management 
products.

What is the sens of the list?  IBM, or third party, if so what third party?
