    TSM Server: Version 5.2.3.2
    TSM Client Versions on both prod and dev: Version 5.2.3.1

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------
    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

    the test/ prod boxes ?
