v The Unicode-enabled client has a file and directory name size limitation of 504<br />

bytes. Depending on the Unicode characters (2-byte, 3-byte, or 4-byte) used, this<br />

translates to a maximum of 126 to 252 characters.<br />

Important: If you do not follow the migration instructions properly, you might<br />

have two file spaces, one Unicode and one non-Unicode, with different file space<br />

identifiers (fsID) <strong>for</strong> the same client volume. In this case, the <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong><br />

<strong>Manager</strong> client uses the non-Unicode file space as the default file space <strong>for</strong> backup<br />

and restore operations.<br />

Additional upgrade in<strong>for</strong>mation<br />

This section explains some additional in<strong>for</strong>mation that you need to know when<br />

upgrading your <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> client.<br />

The size of the buffer to record change notifications <strong>for</strong> a particular journal file<br />

system (DirNotifyBufferSize) has changed. The default value is 16 KB.<br />

When you install the Web client, you must install the Web-client language files that<br />

correspond to those languages you want to use.<br />

To view the non-English online help from the web client applet, you must install<br />

the language versions of the help files on the agent, the system where the <strong>Tivoli</strong><br />

<strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> <strong>Backup</strong>-<strong>Archive</strong> Client was installed. If the language versions are<br />

not installed or are not available, the online help is displayed in English.<br />

See the client_message.chg file in the client package <strong>for</strong> a list of new and changed<br />

messages since the previous <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> release.<br />

Upgrading Open File Support or online image<br />

The Open File Support (OFS) and online image installation features have been<br />

replaced with a single Logical Volume Snapshot Agent (LVSA) feature.<br />

This feature is selected by default unless you are upgrading from an installation<br />

where OFS or online image was being used.<br />

You can install LVSA <strong>for</strong> use during both online image and OFS operations, but<br />

those features are not automatically enabled. To enable OFS, the<br />

snapshotproviderfs option must be set in the dsm.opt file, and to enable online<br />

image, the snapshotproviderimage option must be set in the dsm.opt file.<br />

Volume Shadowcopy Service (VSS) is also supported <strong>for</strong> OFS and online image<br />

operations. You can enable VSS by setting the snapshotproviderfs and<br />

snapshotproviderimage options in the dsm.opt file. If you use VSS, you do not<br />

need to install LVSA.<br />

Use the Setup wizard to select NONE, VSS, orLVSA <strong>for</strong> each of the OFS and<br />

online image functions. If LVSA is selected and it is not already installed on your<br />

system, it is installed at this time.<br />

If you are migrating from a previous version of the <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> client<br />

where you were using the LVSA <strong>for</strong> OFS or online image, and you decide during<br />

the installation to continue to use the LVSA, then you do not need to explicitly set<br />

the snapshotproviderfs or snapshotproviderimage options. Since you do not need<br />
