Hello, apparently I had to use the ADMIN user for it to work! Before, I used my 
own user ID with equivalent ADMIN rights, not enough I guess. 
Issue solved.
Thank you very much for your help :)

Subject: [ADSM-L] Netware client TSAFS - Any ideas

Hello Ramiro, 

Troubleshooting netware client can be tricky and in that case "the command line 
is your friend". 
On netware server prompt, type in "dsmc" (ensure no error message when you 
start that command line client) 
Then issue 'query tsa' just to check that connection to TSM server AND netware 
server are fine ; issue 'q tsa nds' if you also backup the nds. 
Please check that the netware account that you use with TSM has proper full 
rights over the destination volume. 

Then, try this : 
tsm> restore VOLUME:\tsm551\*  DATA:\TEMP\  -su=yes -preservepath=complete 
(VOLUME: being the source volume where folder was backed up ; no need to create 
destination folder before restoring) 

If files are properly backed up (did you check dsmsched.log and dsmerror.log 
?), they should be properly restored on same netware server. 

Can you confirm you launch the client with a ncf file that should look like 
TSMSTART.NCF hereafter (assuming your nw server is 6.5) : 
LOAD SMSUT.NLM 
LOAD TSANDS.NLM 
LOAD SMDR.NLM 
LOAD TSAFS.NLM /nocachingmode /NoConvertUnMappableChars 
SEARCH ADD SYS:\TIVOLI\TSM\CLIENT\BA 
LOAD DSMCAD 


(/nocachingmode /NoConvertUnMappableChars switches are optional) 

If you're successfull in command line mode, then give a try to web client. 

That's all I have in mind currently. 

Let me know if that helps. 
Best regards. 

Norman
