Hi Wayne,

look at http://www.tivoli.com/support/storage_mgr/tivolieoc.html .
Tivoli Storage Manager S/390Ž belongs to the version 4.1 product set,
therefore version 4 clients should work with vm 3.1 server (version 3.1
functions only, of course).
We installed version 4.1 clients on win95/98/NT/2000/ME, AIX, SOLARIS,
and almost all works fine.

Regards, Gerhard Ginzler
