Peter,

I have been of the same mindset regarding Netware, but for the last year
or so we have been (dare I say it) pretty darn stable with backups. We
have a 6.0 cluster with 4 nodes running TSM client 5.2.2.3. Netware nlms
listed below.

TSA600.NLM
  Loaded from [SYS:\SYSTEM\]
  (Address Space = OS)
  SMS - File System Agent for NetWare 6.0
  Version 6.00.08 September 11, 2003

SMDR.NLM
  Loaded from [SYS:\SYSTEM\]
  (Address Space = OS)
  SMS - Storage Data Requestor
  Version 6.54 December 9, 2003

Hello everybody,

Netware seems to be the one environment where I find the stars need to
be aligned properly for everything to work for backups and restores.  I
am wondering what version of TSM client and what versions of
TSAFS/TSA600/SMDR everybody is using out there for both Netware 6 and
Netware 6.5 servers.  Anybody have any thoughts or recommendations?

Have a super weekend,
Peter
