You need to load TSA (see for the right version in the readme) and then
start a session, dsmc and do a  Q TSA (do this on your novell box)

Just answer and fill in what is needed and you're done, the problem is also
you need to make sure SMDR is configured/loaded because TSM client is using
this.

Q TSA output

TSA NAM                 clientname
TSA MODULE NAME                 TSA.500
TSA                             VERSION 5.0.0
SMDR                    VERSION 5.0.0
USER/Password location  clientname\sys:location client\clientname.pwd
USER/Password valid             yes


good luck
