IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Server Readme File
Version 6, Release 3, Modification 3.200
ATTENTION
This is interim fix (patch) level 6.3.3.200.
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.
