Notes:
- Fix Central is the IBM recommended site for retrieving fixes for most products. Fix Central enables customers to search, select, and download appropriate fixes for their situation. Tivoli Storage Productivity Center 5.1.1 fixes are available only on Fix Central.
- Use the GNU tar program (1.14 or higher) rather than the native AIX tar program to extract files from Tivoli Storage Productivity Center installation images. The AIX tar program can truncate long file names, which may cause errors with the Tivoli Storage Productivity Center application.
The GNU tar file archiving program can be obtained from the following link:http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/power/software/aix/linux/toolbox/alpha.html
