Re: TSM having trouble backing up Netware 6 Client

You should be able to back up your NW6 box with existing levels of code
(although I'm unclear about your references to NSN when you state that
you have TSM Server 4.2.1.9
Support (because of testing platforms) probably doesn't want to pursue
the issue on the 4.2 server but it should still be under support. Did
they give you a concrete reason for upgrading the server code to 5.x?
Given that, we're using 4.1.4.3 code and backing up Netware 5 and 6
servers (even clusters) with no major problems. I'd check for the latest
tsa nlm's (Netware's TSAUP11 I believe) and get the 5.1.5.6 client.

I was wondering if anyone had any challenges with TSM backups not working after
migrating a client to Netware 6. This is what is happening here.....
We just upgraded to Netware 6 on our Netware client. After the migration the
scheduled backup job was not able to talk to the TSM server and we got this
message:
01/29/03 01:09:37 ANR8213W Session open with (10.###.##.##) timed out.
01/29/03 01:09:37 ANR2716E Schedule prompter was not able to contact
client
MMRSSERV using type 1 (10.###.##.## ###).
TSM support then told us to upgrade our TSM 3.7 client on the Netware Client to
TSM V 5.1.5.0 . We did this and then started getting this message:
02/01/03 08:50:53 ANR9999D smnode.c(6243): ThreadId<23> Error receiving
EventLog Verb - invalid data type, 21300, received for
event number 4005 from node (NetWare)MMRSSERV.
******************
TSM support says we need to upgrade our TSM Server version to 5.1.5
Our software rep says:
Our current version of NSM is 4.2 (server version). This is as far as we can go with NSM.
We need to migrate from NSM to TSM server software. This is provided through
"passport advantage" which is no longer through them. He says we need to
contact our passport advantage vendor and request the necessary software for migration.
After all of this, will our backups work for netware??????????
