IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Server Version 6, Release 1, Modification 5.10

This is an interim fix (patch) level 6.1.5.10.
It is intended to provide relief for critical problems where a local circumvention is unavailable.

A limited amount of testing has been done to verify the fixes. Consequently, we strongly recommend that you perform additional testing before putting the package into a production environment.

These fixes will be tested further by IBM Tivoli Storage Management and included in the next maintenance/fix pack level.
