5)  Features not supported on this release

1) Install Instructions:
------------------------

The installation of the server requires that the license terms be
accepted by user. The Server package won't install unless the license 
terms are accepted. Please ensure that IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Server, 
version 5.2.2.0 is installed on your system before applying this upgrade.

Use the commands bunzip2 and tar to extract the rpm packages. For example:
bunzip2 TIVsm-server-5.2.2-3.Linux.tar.bz2
mkdir tsm
cd tsm
tar xvf ../TIVsm-server-5.2.2-3.Linux.tar

Execute the rpm command as follows:

rpm -Uvh [ --prefix prefix] <pkgname>
  
where prefix is optional, and it denotes the file system where you would like 
IBM Tivoli Storage Manager to be installed, and <pkgname> denotes one of the 
packages listed on session 4 below.  If no prefix is given, the default install 
path is /opt.

   NOTE: For a list of supported kernel levels on previous levels of ITSM
   Device Drivers, see the Linux support web page at
   http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=0&uid=swg21111628

3) Notice for SLES7 and SLES8 
   ---------------------------

   Two kernel levels are supported on SLES7 and SLES8. If ITSM Device Driver is used
   on SLES7 or SLES8, and there is more than one kernel installed on the system,
   tsmscsi script will prompt users to enter the kernel level for which the 
   ITSM device driver will be used. Ensure that the kernel running on the system 
   is the one entered at the prompt; otherwise the device driver will be loaded 
   but will fail to manage the storage devices. The command uname -r will not 
   idendify the specific kernel level that the system is running. Thus, users will 
   have to identify the running kernel level in a different way.
