Hello all,

  it is well known that older clients are out of support, but still continue
to work with the capabilities they were designed for.
Now I and some colleagues of mine upgraded customers to TSM 7.1.4 and 7.1.5,
with client-versions ranging from 5.5 to 7.1, and all of a sudden all clients
<=6.1 can still backup to the server, but aren't any longer able to
restore/retrieve files. ANR4035W is reported.
While this might not be a situation where one could get support from IBM, it
is still a new situation as we as old *SMers are used to the fact that old
clients remain useable after an upgrade.
