Guys
I have to do TSM upgrade on an AIX server. Currently following filesets are installed on AIX level
----------------------------------------------
lslpp -l | grep tsm
tivoli.tsm.client.api.32bit
tivoli.tsm.client.ba.32bit.base
tivoli.tsm.client.ba.32bit.common
tivoli.tsm.client.ba.32bit.image
tivoli.tsm.client.ba.32bit.nas
tivoli.tsm.client.ba.32bit.web
tivoli.tsm.client.hsm.jfs2
tivoli.tsm.license.aix5.rte64
tivoli.tsm.license.cert 5.5.0.0 COMMITTED IBM Tivoli Storage Manager
tivoli.tsm.loc.server.ela 5.5.0.0 COMMITTED IBM Tivoli Storage Manager
tivoli.tsm.server.com 5.5.3.0 COMMITTED IBM Tivoli Storage Manager

-----------------------------------------------------------
So it looks like that GFPS or TSM HSM GPFS client is not there ... only TSM HSM JFS2 client is there.
The version of TSM server seems to be at level of 5.5.3.0 while HSM client is at 5.5.1 ( as shown by dsmdf command ).
My questions are as follows:
1. Can i just upgrade TSM server from 5.5.3 to 5.5.6 without doing any upgrade on TSM JFS HSM client ? I looked for compatibility document from IBM about TSM Server/Client and it seems that in most of scenerio they are talking about compatibility between versions mainly ( not between releases).
2.How i can check version of TSM Admin console ? How to upgrade it as i can not find any document saying about ugrade of admin consoles separately?
3. It seems to me that upgrade of TSM server from 5.5.3 to 5.5.6 is just using smitty update_all on AIX... while upgrade of TSM HSM client would be uninstalling client software and then reinstalling new client version...Am i correct in this understanding ? Any processes to be stopped before upgarde ? any guidance from any person who has done this upgrade would be really helpful ? any reference to upgrade procedure would also really help
Many thanks
Regards
