This version of the TSM V5.2 Administrative Interface for use with TSM V5.3 is intended to allow customer time for transitioning from TSM V5.2 to TSM V5.3 new interface .

In response to customer  transition needs, we are making available the TSM Version 5.2 administrative Web interface for a limited time to support customer migration activities to TSM Version 5.3.
Rules of Use:
1. Customers may run concurrent instances of the Version 5.2 administrative Web interface and the Version 5.3 interfaces.

2.
During the transition period, use of the Version 5.2 administrative Web interface for migration activities will be considered a supported environment; however, no functional enhancements will be made to the Version 5.2 interface and any reported problems that require a code change to the Version 5.2 interface will not be corrected.  Defects found in the base TSM server will be corrected.

3. The Version 5.2 interface does not support the new functions in Version 5.3 interface. To take advantage of the new functions in the interface, customers must use Version 5.3 interface.
