Following up on this thread, the 7.1.1 Administrator's Guide PDFs are now
available in IBM Knowledge Center at
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSGSG7_7.1.1/com.ibm.itsm.tsm.doc/r_pdfs_tsm.html
This is in addition to where they were available before, in the .zip file
and on the Tivoli Storage Manager wiki. We hope this makes it easier to
find and access the 7.1.1 guides.
A reminder: We are still very much interested in hearing about what the
most important subjects from the 7.1.1 Administrator's Guide are for us to
consider for updates. Knowing more specifics about your priorities is very
important to us to set priorities.
One way to give such feedback privately: Go to any topic (in any version)
for Tivoli Storage Manager in IBM Knowledge Center and click the Feedback
link in the menu bar at the very bottom. If your comments exceed the
1000-character limit in the feedback form, you can include your email
address in the feedback and ask us to contact you.

Please be assured that we in IBM development are listening and are
discussing future actions regarding the Administrator's Guide content
since the feedback about the 7.1.3 release that did not include that book.
I gave some information in a response to that earlier feedback:
http://www.mail-archive.com/adsm-l AT vm.marist DOT edu/msg99286.html
We are working on a plan to publish a solution guide for the disk-to-tape
architecture next. This should fill in some gaps left by the removal of
the Administrator's Guide. Timing of the publication is yet to be
determined.
We are also discussing how to fill the information needs for those who
will not be using one of the four documented architectures. We already
point to the 7.1.1 guides from newer releases but we realize this is not
ideal. Possible actions include creating additional, supplemental
information outside of the solution guides, similar to what we have done
for the information about NDMP (
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSGSG7_7.1.4/srv.admin/r_ndmp.html
).
What are the most important subjects from the old Administrator's Guide
for us to consider? Knowing more specifics about your priorities would be
very helpful to us for setting our priorities and plans. Web traffic for
the content on IBM Knowledge Center gives us some information but not a
complete picture of needs.
Meanwhile, to make the 7.1.1 Administrator's Guide PDFs easier to find and
download, today we added the five English PDFs to the Tivoli Storage
Manager wiki. Find the links to them on this page:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli%20Storage%20Manager/page/Version%207.1.1%20PDF%20files%20of%20IBM%20Tivoli%20Storage%20Manager%20documentation
The 7.1.1 Administrator's Guide PDFs are also still available in the
711_411_PDFs.zip file that you can find at
ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/products/TSM/current/
The available translations are in the 711_411_PDFs_nl.zip file in the same
directory. All this content (English and other languages) remains
available online in IBM Knowledge Center at
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSGSG7_7.1.1/com.ibm.itsm.srv.common.doc/t_server_main.html
PDFs for previous releases, including several unsupported levels, are also
still available. Start on this page:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli%20Storage%20Manager/page/PDF%20documentation
(Note: This wiki was unavailable for several days, starting on 11
December. While the wiki is available again, restoration of some pages and
links is still in progress. Unfortunately you might find some links that
don't work, especially for the unsupported releases. I don't know the
projected date for completion.)
