Hi Zoltan,
I do not know what the trouble is. I just tried the 7.1.1 client on my Win
7 x64 workstation, and it finds the USB drive just fine under "Removable
drives".
Have you tried manually typing in a USB drive letter and directory as a
restore destination? Or using the command line?
Do you have UAC enabled on your workstation? If yes, try this:
1. Open a Windows command prompt (cmd.exe) with the "Run as administrator"
option.
2. Within that prompt. change into the TSM directory where dsm.exe is
located (for example, cd /d "C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient").
3. Type dsm.exe from the command prompt and press <ENTER> to start the TSM
Java GUI.
Any difference?
- Andy
