IBM Spectrum Protect Server Readme
Version 7, Release 1, Modification 4.100
ATTENTION
This is interim fix (patch) level 7.1.4.100. This interim fix replaces Fix Pack 7.1.4.000 and resolves a critical issue that was detected in that fix pack.
The Operations Center is available in a separate package. You can download the Operations Center from Fix Central.
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 technote 1963634.
