I think that may be because all of the functionality at Tivoli.com has been
(or soon will be completely) replaced with functionality at IBM.com.  I
received several emails over the last month regarding this last week, and I
think Friday, Oct. 18 was officially the last day we were to try to use
Tivoli.com site.
Just my understanding of the emails I have been receiving...

I don't have any trouble going to the FTP site, THANK GOODNESS!!

I'm talking about the Tivoli web pages on the IBM support site.
A lot of new users are not ready to navigate the FTP site and figure out
patch/fix levels on their own; we have taught many support people to start
with the Tivoli web pages, which have NICE select drop downs to help them
figure out the current levels of code they need; when they click the web
page, it sends them to the RIGHT PLACE on the FTP site.  Either the web
pages should WORK, or they should be eliminated entirely.  They should not
be implemented in a broken state.

This is the web site I'm talking about:
http://www.tivoli.com/support/storage_mgr/adsercli.htm


Start here, select the WinNT-2000 , then try going through the SUPPORT
DOWNLOADS link....

Amen. I used to get the clients from the Boulder FTP site and even that has
not worked for a few weeks now. I'm sure glad I kept the clients I
downloaded on my local hard drive else I would not have been able to get
anything done this week!
