Error description
The 8.1.0.2 api client on Linux for x86_64 is packaged with two incorrect links. The TIVsm-API64-8.1.0-2.x86_64 package supplies under: /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin64/ files: libssl.so.1.0.2 libcrypto.so.1.0.2 links: libVMssl.so -> libssl.so.1.0.1 libVMcrypto.so -> libcrypto.so.1.0.1 as can be seen the links are incorrectly pointing to libssl.so.1.0.1 and libcrypto.so.1.0.1 instead of libssl.so.1.0.2 and libcrypto.so.1.0.2 This causes dsmc to fail to start with an error like: ANS1592E Failed to initialize SSL protocol. error log reports: ANS1579E GSKit function gsk_secure_soc_init failed with 420: GSK_ERROR_SOCKET_CLOSED ANS9020E A session could not be established with a IBM Spectrum Protect server or client agent.

Local fix
Delete the two existing links and recreate new links pointing to the correct file versions. ie rm libVMssl.so rm libVMcrypto.so ln -s libssl.so.1.0.2 libVMssl.so ln -s libcrypto.so.1.0.2 libVMcrypto.so
