V5.2.3 is a maintenance level to Tivoli. V5.2.3.X is a patch level. It is far
better to go forward with a maintenance level because it has been fully tested.
Patches are tested but not to the extent that a maintenance level is.
So they are correct that you should be at a maintenance level but you need to
point out to them that V5.2.3 is just that.
5 - Version
2 - Release
3 - Maintenance
X - Patch

I'm back from class and I've installed TSM V5.2.3 on another 2003
Windows server and the results have been positive. I've done some test
restores on a 2000 server that I installed this same version on with
good results.
The Unix admins don't really want me to install this TSM V5.2.3 since
they would prefer what they call a maintenance level, like TSM V5.2.3.X.
Do you see any reason why TSM V5.2.3 would not be safe to install?

Just to close the loop with the rest of this list on this:
The doc that Melinda and Leif sent me both showed "invalid verb
received"
messages, which suggested IC40841. The current APAR description isn't an
exact match, but from what I knew about the fix for that APAR, it seemed
worth a shot.
There were two facets of this APAR to fix. The first facet, which is the
pertinent one here, is fixed in 5.2.3.0 (even if the README file doesn't
mention IC40841). The second facet (regarding a "successful backup"
message even if the file system processing stopped prematurely), will be
fixed in an upcoming interim fix, at which time IC40841 will be shown as
"fixed".
It is my understanding that 5.2.3.0 resolved the problem for Leif (at
least initial testing looked promising). If and when Melinda reads this
message, perhaps she can indicate her current status as well. But I
think
this will resolve her problem, too.
So for anyone who experiences similar symptoms to those discussed
earlier
in this thread: try 5.2.3.0.
