> Hi *SM-ers!
> I would like to know your opinion on something:
> I opened a PNR for the following TSM client behavior:
> The TSM client (AIX and NT tested) doesn't list any restorable objects
when
> the options file contains an error.
> Try the following on AIX: rename your include/exclude file and start the
TSM
> client. It returns the error: ANS1036S Invalid option 'INCLEXCL' found in
> options file. Click on OK and now click the restore button on the main
GUI.
> No files are listed!
> This was quite disturbing for our UNIX people! When you correct the
> include/exclude and you restart the GUI all files are listed again.
> To my opinion, this is clearly a bug, but this was the response form the
> Tivoli lab:
> With both the command line and the GUI, the TSM client informed the user
of
> the option file problem and location.  If the option file problem is
> resolved, normal client behavior is returned. This appears to be a request
> for a design change.
> What do you think? Is it a bug or am I a nit-picker?
> Kindest regards,
