Re: TSM Server on Windows - Does it work?

Putting all the OS/HW dogma aside, IBM/Tivoli doesn't support TSM on NT as
seriously as it does on other, more 'expensive' platforms.
Earlier this year, we discovered a serious (fatal actually) flaw with TSM
on WinNT 4. TSM would hang each and every time a platter was unmounted
from a drive in a 3995-C66 optical library. The bug was reported the same
day it was discovered, and escalated to management within a week. The
answer Tivoli gave was "wait for the next maintenance release". It took
four weeks.
On larger, more expensive platforms, patches of this sort are of a higher
priority. Why? Because the customer running on more expensive hardware
likely spent the extra money for a higher level of performance. I doubt I
would have waited more than two or three days of the problem I described
had appeared on AIX.
