Tip: Beginning with Version 7.1.3, IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager is now IBM Spectrum Protect. Some applications such as the software fulfillment systems and IBM License Metric Tool use the new product name. However, the software and its product documentation continue to use the Tivoli Storage Manager product name. To learn more about the rebranding transition, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21963634.

Notes:

• There can be multiple clients in one download image.
• Starting with V7.1.8, due to technical reasons, two RHEL packages are being delivered for Linux on z Systems--one general package, and one special package for RHEL 5 support. Use the latter package only for the RHEL5 operating system. The special package for RHEL 5 is available only on the FTP server.
