Hi Jurgen:

Can you provide any details on the bug with FILE volumes?  Is there an
open APAR on this? 

Thanks,

Yes, we're on AIX 5.2 and TSM 5.3 here. Very smooth upgrade (from
5.2.3),
runs OK. We did hit a bug with FILE volumes, and cannot reliably use
FILE
volumes. Fortunately, it was quite easily worked around by temporarily
using DISK volumes.

Not running the Administration Center here: command line only.

Nice new features are Collocation Groups, the (optional) elimination of
the need to issue REPLY to commands and the Offsite Reclamation limit.
Nice features on the client side: the ability for the TDPs to "plug-in"
into the Web-interface of the standard client, so you can do TDP for
Domino-restore from the regular Web-client.
