Thanks Jerry. I thought I am the only one experiencing the hiccups from the
TSM client 5.5 upgrade issues with DB2.
The following is what IBM said .........

DB2 has to be restarted. If it has not it must be. This is because the DB2
logger manager loads the API in its memory when it runs its first log
archive and keeps it in memory thereafter (as opposed to an actual backup
of the databases, which loads the API into memory at the start & unloads it
at the end), You'll need to bounce DB2 to have the DB2 logger manager
reload the new API into its memory.

I have requested for an emergency reboot Monday. We had a similar case on
another box, the dba has to uninstall and reinstall a lower version to get
the DB2 to work again. I will keep you informed.

We have had the same issue with the API Dir and DB2.  Support has a work
around, the fix hasn't gone through all the official tests but it's just
the API compiled without a couple of the enhancements made in 5.5
(enhancements that didn't affect the API anyway). Several customers have
used it with success, but like any diagnostic build, it's still at your
discretion to use. You will need to contact TSM support to get the fix.

Hello,
      When upgrading TSM client to 5.5.0.4 causes the content of API folder
to disappear. This is a window 2003 standard edition. TDP is DB2.
The upgrade is the typical install, but causes the DB2 have exit error.

The problem we are seeing when we upgrade the TSM 5.5.0.4 client from
5.3.4.4 is that the new API does not work with the DB2 user exit program.
It functions well with the 5.3.4.4 client.  Once the upgrade completes we
start seeing the following errors when issuing the commands below:

c:\> db2adutil query full
Initialize environment failed to ADSM return code 610.

c:\> db2 backup database toolsdb use tsm
SQL2062N An error occurred while accessing media
"C:\program files\IBM\sqllib\bin\db2tsm.dll".  Reason code "610"

I was told that I do not have to upgrade the TDP piece at the same time.
How do you resolve this problem? I noticed the all the stuff inside the API
folder disappear. All that is left is dsm file. I do not see BIN, DLL,
icc32, INCLUDE, LIB, OBJ, SAMPRUN, SAmPSRC, apienu.dll, descenu.txt,
descenu.txt.bak2, dsierror.log, dsm.opt, dsmerror.log

Any idea?

I appreciate your help.
