    Just to clarify, this server you upgraded is a TSM client?

    Did you also upgrade the TSM client version on this node? Is it running
    the same client version as the machine you are masquerading?

    Thanks

    We have a dev box running AIX 5.1 ml 3. This box is used only to restore
    files to it for development purposes using TSM. We normally log into the
    server using the virtualnodename option with TSM, masquerading as the
    production box appropriately called prod.

    Well last weekend we upgraded dev from AIX 5.1 ml3 to AIX 5.3 ml2.
    Everything seems to have gone very well except for now when we log into the
    TSM server to perform a restore, we get the message:

    “Data unavailable to server” even though we can see it out there using the
    GUI to restore it. Something tells me that this has something to do with
    the fact that when we upgraded TSM, we had to reset out network settings
    and our hostname.

    Do any of you have any ideas?

    Thanks in Advance
