Fastback 6.1.5...full download question...Issue Resolved
In talking to IBM Support...you can download 6.1.3 (where support for 2008r2 is introduced) from IBM Fix Central...and it will be a fully functional/licensed version. You do need appropriate log in credentials to get to the software.
I did this...and upgraded to 6.1.5...and it all appears to work fine.

My previous post...
Coming from the TSM side of the world, Fastback software downloads are a bit confusing to me.
I see that with recent releases of Fastback patches/maintenance you can now run the Fastback server on Windows 2008 r2, 64 bit.
As an IBM partner, I can go to Partnerworld where the most current version for download I can find is 6.1.0.0. I can then go to IBM Fix central where I can download patches -- such as 6.1.5.
From what I can tell...6.1.5 download at fix central is not a full version and is meant to be installed over a full/licensed release. So how would I do this? If I can't install the base 6.1.0.0 on a 2008r2 64 bit box, how do I get a base code install that I then can install 6.1.5 on top of?
Can someone enlighten me?
