David,

I didn't try TSM on an ESX server yet. But the installation fails
because no korn shell (ksh) is found on the ESX server.

Just install an rpm with the ksh on the ESX server prior to installing
the TSM API. And see if it works then.

There are also a few tech documents on the TSM support site that might
be worth reading:

best regards,
Kurt
