Does anyone know the end of life date for TSM 5.3 or where I would go to find that information.

Thanks
 
Is TSM server 5.3.6.2 is supported after April 30th, or only 5.3 base level is going out of support.

Any specific link justify this.
 
And look at http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=663&uid=swg21286063
....
Limited to migration/upgrade only - From April 30, 2008 to September 30, 2008, IBM Tivoli Storage Manager 5.3 customers can obtain best effort support for upgrading to IBM Tivoli Storage Manager 5.4 or 5.5. No code changes will be made to TSM 5.3. After September 30, 2008, customers must have a support extension to receive any TSM 5.3 client or server support.
 
Yep
This is the one Support just announced last week. This is for Win2k, Solaris 8 and older Linux. Read on - the specifics suggest that TSM server needs to be at 5.4 or higher - and the new code is not available for another 3 weeks. Those who need it - need to call into support and they will pass on the link to download the code. They're going to attempt to track it this way. Its a bit of a relief but not a long term solution. Those who are upgrading and still have the means should continue.
