Can anybody tell me where I can locate a copy of the TSM 3.7 Technical Ref
Redbook.

I assume it is a seperate entity to the Admin Guide and Admin Reference.

Thanks

Farren - If you have not yet delved into the TSM Technical Guide
redbooks, you will find them excellent reading, particularly as
they serve as a record of the evolution of the product.  The TSM 3.7
Technical Guide in particular talks about the buffer pool size and use
of Expiration as a self-tuning measure.
