-The schedlogmax setting in dsm.sys sets the maximum logfile size for dsmsched.log and dsmwebcl.log to the entered value in MB and enables wrapping (similar to a ring buffer within the files). When not setting this variable or using 0 it allows the log file to grow indefinitely. To get to the point of the last entry in the log when wrapping is enabled search for "END OF DATA". Use this option when you're low / limited on system storage.

+==== Upgrading a working TSM instance to the latest package ====
+Use ''rpm -Uvh'' to upgrade the packages. TIV packages need to be updated with one single command, e.g.:
+<code bash>rpm -Uvh gskcrypt64-8.0.55.31.linux.x86_64.rpm gskssl64-8.0.55.31.linux.x86_64.rpm TIVsm-API64.x86_64.rpm TIVsm-APIcit.x86_64.rpm TIVsm-BA.x86_64.rpm TIVsm-BAcit.x86_64.rpm</code>

+=== Debugging ===
+On older RedHat based systems you may get some errors while updating, e.g.
+<code>
+error: Failed dependencies:
+        libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.14)(64bit) is needed by TIVsm-API64-8.1.20-0.x86_64

+You have to update glibc to minimum version v2.14 AND libstdc (GLIBCXX) to minimum version v3.4.15.
+Beginning with IBM Spectrum Protect backup-archive client level 8.1.19, the operating system RHEL 6 and SLES 11 are no longer supported, as stated here: \\ [[https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/apar/IT44180]]
+However, you can manually update the required libraries. This is not a clean way of updating, but tested working in several machines running CentOS 6:
+<code bash>
+cd /tmp/TSMinstall
+mkdir glibc; cd glibc
+# Check installed version(s) of glibc
+ldconfig  -p | grep libc.so
+strings /lib64/libc.so.6 | grep GLIBC
+# Download glibc v2.17 libraries compiled to work for CentOS 6 Systems
