We in IBM Haifa research lab put the client code in AFS and then run a
script that put symbolic links in the "normal" places . (lslpp -f adsm.obj)
But beware that there is a need for only one file to be locally installed and
it is : dsmtca

>In the case of ADSM, is there any experience putting either
>server or client code in AFS?
