Note: About vulnerabilities that have been identified in Tivoli Storage Manager Client/API:

The Tivoli Storage Manager Client/API are used as components of Data Protection for VMware. The Tivoli Storage Manager Backup-Archive Client also known as Data Mover is a separate prerequisite and is not included in the Data Protection for VMware installation package. The Tivoli Storage Manager Client API is also a prerequisite of Data Protection for VMware and is installed as a part of the default Data Protection for VMware installation process. Be aware that all Data Protection for VMware functional components must be at the same Fix Pack level. Within a given Fix Pack level, the interim fix level can differ.

See in the "Flashes, alerts and bulletins for Tivoli Storage Manager for Virtual Environments Support Portal" for vulnerabilities that have been identified in Tivoli Storage Manager affecting beside other Tivoli Storage Manager products also Data Protection for VMware.

Instructions to replace Tivoli Storage Manager Client/API on system where Data Protection for VMware is installed within a Fix Pack level:
  • If the Tivoli Storage Manager Client (data mover) is installed on this system, its possible to upgrade the Data Mover by installing the new Tivoli Storage Manager Client package. This will update the Tivoli Storage Manager API as well.
  • If the Tivoli Storage Manager Client (data mover) is not installed on this system (for example if only GUI is installed):
    • On a Linux system its possible to upgrade the Tivoli Storage Manager API by installing the new API package
    • On a Windows system its necessary to install the Tivoli Storage Manager Client package which installs automatically the new API package

Interim fix packages contain no license enablement file. You must already have the 6.4.1.0 base package to obtain the license enablement file required to use the product.
