This tool is provided "AS-IS" with no warranty provided of any kind.  No functional enhancements will be made and  any reported problems which require a code change will not be corrected.

This version of the TSM V5.2 Administrative Interface for use with TSM V5.3 is intended to allow customer time for transitioning from TSM V5.2 to TSM V5.3 new interface .

In response to customer  transition needs, we are making available the TSM Version 5.2 administrative Web interface for a limited time to support customer migration activities to TSM Version 5.3.

Rules of Use:
1. Customers may run concurrent instances of the Version 5.2 administrative Web interface and the Version 5.3 interfaces.

2. During the transition period, use of the Version 5.2 administrative Web interface for migration activities will be considered a supported environment; however, no functional enhancements will be made to the Version 5.2 interface and any reported problems that require a code change to the Version 5.2 interface will not be corrected.  Defects found in the base TSM server will be corrected.

3. The Version 5.2 interface does not support the new functions in Version 5.3 interface. To take advantage of the new functions in the interface, customers must use Version 5.3 interface.


Installation notes:
To activate the V5.2 Web administrative interface for Tivoli Storage Manager V5.3 for z/OS,
you need to obtain the the image library dataset (ftp instructions are below),
and update the JCL for starting the Tivoli Storage Manager V5.3 server to include a
WEBIMAGE DD, pointing to the image library dataset.

Add the line to the V5.3 server JCL/Proc that activates the V5.2 web interface. Update DSN
to your name for the image library dataset. Here is an example of the line to add:
//WEBIMAGE DD DSN=TIVSM.SANRIMG(WEBSERV2),DISP=SHR

See the Tivoli Storage Manager V5.2 documentation and TSM V5.2 server libraries for instructions
and sample JCL for using the runfile command to setup the server, and for
information on how to use the Web administrative client.

FTP Instructions:

1.  Allocate a physical sequential dataset for the file, which represents an image library.  Use the following attributes:

Space units
 Block
Primary quantity
 715
Directory blocks
 0
Record format
 FB
Record length
 80
Block size
 3120
Data set name type
 leave blank

                 
2.  Using FTP on your MVS system, get a copy of the file  OLDWEB.IMAGELIB.BIN, placing it in the allocated
dataset. Be sure to set the mode to binary before you ftp the file.  To get a copy go to
ftp://service.boulder.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/tools/mvs

3.  Allocate the dataset for the image library. Use the V5.2 Tivoli Storage Manager image library as a model
for the attributes, or use the following information to determine the attributes:
Space units    
 Block
Primary quantity
122
Directory blocks  
68
Record format  
VB
Record length    
132
Block Size  
 27990
Data set name type  
 PDS


4.  Issue the following TSO command to reverse the
XMIT format file and create an image library.

receive indsn('step1.dataset.name')          

The file can be received into an existing library by specifying  dsn('step3.dataset.name')
 when prompted for restore parameters by the receive command.
