Unfortunately, the effort was unsuccessful. Although I have
received many e-mails of people in organizations, who would
like such a client and have forwarded them to the people in charge,
the offer our computing centre received from Tivoli was=20
inacceptable.
In detail: a TSM 4.x client port could be provided for 25KEUR, with
_NO_ support and no updates.
A TSM 5.x client port would be provided for 125KEUR again without
support and updates. Support may be purchased, but there was no
commitment for maintenance of this port and future versions.
Our computing centre turned this "offer" down.
So if anyone else has possible better influence on the Tivoli
product managers or can provide more leverage, please step forward
and bring this issue to Tivoli's attention. You may ask me for the
results of my demand-poll. I am happy to provide all the answers
I have received.
Best regards,
Daniel
P.S.: I still have machines using the Linux version of the TSM client,
with ugly hacks, but I was not able to run a TSM 5.x client=20
on a FreeBSD 5.x box. :-/
