Terminal Serve Manager

Mike Batchelder — Thu, 16 Jun 2005 14:53:52 GMT

Is there a version of TSM that is supported on the IA-64. I've tried the ones that I am using on my 4000-90s and Alphas but they don't work on the Integrity. Please help.

Mike,

The binary formats and instruction sets are different on each platform. An executable for one architecture will not run on a different architecture, unless one is running an emulator.

I do not offhand remember if TSM is available in source. Since it DOES run on Alpha, you could attempt to translate it using the Image Translator.

I hope that the above is helpful.

Since TSM is no longer a supported product, an IA64 version is unlikely.

I've tried a translation using AEST and it uncovers no errors, but since I have no IA64 system at hand, I can't test it.

An alternative could be the AccessServerManager from DNPG running on a windows plattform. But it only can speak TCPIP. Its controlfiles are nearly 100% compatible to TSM controlfiles.
