Hi Christoph,

Yes. you can not run the TDPO 2.1.10 with the 3.7.2 client

I logged a PMR with tivoli for this and this is the response I got.

Customer is right. TDP for Oracle 2.1.10 on HP-UX requires the 3.7.1 API
A higher level of the API like 3.7.2 API will not work. There is already
a doc APAR IC27223 opened against this issue. The local fix of this APAR
is to run the v3.7.2 Client in combination with the v3.7.1 API:
Save the TSM v3.7.1 API library (libApiDS.sl) to a separate directory,
  it should be installed by default in /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin
Install the latest version of the TSM v3.7.2 client.
Replace the current TSM v3.7.2 API library with the TSM API v3.7.1
  library saved in the first step.
NOTE: This solution will only work if the TSM v3.7.2 client does not
require the use of the v3.7.2 API. For instance, logical volume backups
(image backups) require the v3.7.2 API.

I especially like the first sentence.......

This is what I do.

1. install TSM 3.7.1.0 b/a client including api.
2. install IBMADSMaob 2.1.0.7 (this is where the agent.lic file is)
3. copy the /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin/libApiDS.sl to
/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin/libApiDS.sl.371
4. upgrade TSM b/a client to 3.7.2.x (i'm running 3.7.2.16)
5. copy /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin/libApiDS.sl
/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin/libApiDS.sl.3.7.2
6. cp /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin/libApiDS.sl.371
/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin/libApiDS.sl

This works, but you can't use the logical volume backups.

This will work for oracle 32 bit only.

a 64 bit TDP for oracle on HP-UX should be out shortly...
