We have been running TSM server 6.1.2.1 on AIX 6.1 for a couple of
months and needed to upgrade to 6.1.3 for the fix for a severe NDMP/TOC
performance problem.

Downloaded the 6.1.3 package, ran the upgrade procedure and lo and
behold, the performance problem was no better. At that time, I also
discovered that we were still running version 6.1.2.1 as shown by both
logging in with DSMADMC and the output of the Q STATUS command.

At this point, I opened a problem with Tivoli support. They requested I
rerun the upgrade and send them screen shots and logs of the process as
well as a checksum output of the downloaded package. Again, all looked
normal except that this time it ran much quicker and I received a
message indicating DB2 9.5 had already been installed and would not be
re-installed. And, again, the version ended up being 6.1.2.1.

Two weeks ago, the problem was forwarded to a different support group
who looked at it until Monday when I received a message saying they had
decided the best way to get 6.1.3 installed at this point was to run the
./Uninstall_Tivoli_Storage_Manager program from the /opt/tivoli/tsm/_uninst
directory and then run the upgrade again.  Did that today with the same
results with the additional problem of now having no B/A client on the
machine and no DSMADMC.

My question is; has anyone successfully installed 6.1.3?  Does the
output from a Q STATUS command show 6.1.3?
