Hi,
Also this document says that the Release Date of Spectrum Protect 8.1.1.000 was
24 Mar 2017:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg24043483
Could it maybe be that the date 06/30/2017 on the SP_8.1.1_LIN86_SER-STG_ML.bin
file that you have, is the date on which it was packaged or downloaded?
This is the release order, based on the wiki page:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli+Storage+Manager/page/TSM+Schedule+for+Fix-Packs
8.1.0 December 9, 2016
7.1.7.100 February 9, 2017
8.1.1 March 24, 2017
7.1.7.200 May 5, 2017
7.1.7.300 June 20, 2017
7.1.7.100 was released before 8.1.1, so that's why this particular upgrade
should work.

Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Upgrading Linux server from 7.1.7.300 to 8.1.1 - fail
Thank you for the response and links. The symptoms sound exactly like what I
am seeing but the dates don't correlate . The 7.1.7.300 package I upgraded the
server to (from 7.1.7.000) is dated 06/20/2017 while the
SP_8.1.1_LIN86_SER-STG_ML.bin file I am using to install 8.1.1 is dated
06/30/2017 - unless the dates have to be much later than 06/30/2017 (*For
example, the following upgrade procedures can fail: - 3: Upgrade from patch
release 7.1.7.200 to V8.1.1*).
I am re-downloading the 8.1.1 install package to see if it makes a difference,
since the docs say "*If 7.1.7.100 is installed, you can obtain a V8.1.1
installation package from Passport Advantage and directly upgrade the server to
V8.1.1 without uninstalling 7.1.7.100"*
If not, I will go the uninstall route. Again, thanks.
