Hi Swan,
I've once implementing TSM Server in RHEL 4. As long as the Tape Library can
run well on Linux, i think it would be just fine runing it on Linux. Based on
my experience compared to TSM Server implemented in pSeries machines, using
Linux platform I don't have much complain about it.
Other consideration, is about Operational Reporting for version 5.5 below. I
don't think unix-like don't have the installation source. Anyway, using TSM V61
you have advance reporting tool using IBM Tivoli Monitoring which already in
one package in TSM Server installation.
BR,
Martin

Subject: [ADSM-L] Windows VS Linux TSM Server
We are normally an AIX house for TSM, but the hardware decision has been
made for an implementation in a branch office.
I've used Windows TSM Server and am familiar with it. I've never used a
Linux TSM Server, but would prefer a unix-y TSM Server.
So knowledge and comfort aside, can anyone make some comments on stability
and reliability of TSM Server on either platform?
Tape Library is an IBM 3583 with LTO3 drives.
Regards,
Shawn
