Error description

• Error Description:
  The new Java Graphical User interface of Tivoli Storage Manager
  Client
  shows incorrect content when trying to restore files directly
  from backupsets saved on Tivoli Storage Manager server.
  
  If a user tries to restore a file from a backupset as follow:
  - Start Tivoli Storage Manager Graphical User Interface
  - Click on Restore
  - Click on Backupset in the left  panel
  - Click Server
  - Click Filelevel
  - Click on the folder you would like to restore for displaying
  the content
  
  As a result,  the latest contents of the filespace will be
  displayed (latest files backed up on the Tivoli Storage Manager
  Server), in addition to all the filespaces
  backed up after 'generate backupset'.
  
  In addition an attempt to restore a file, will have as a result,
  a restore of the latest active version of that file present on
  the server without getting it from the backupset volume.
  
  Additional symptoms include the TOC not loading as expected
  when expanding the GUI tree. Window pops up and quickly
  disappears when the TOC loading message should appear.

  Manager  Client  7.1 on all Platforms.
