>I'll look at TSM and figure out where to go with it.

The current Athena version is in the adsm_v4.1.1 locker. Note that for users
opting for scheduled backup, there are tar archives that install the 
required files locally- these are in /mit/adsm_v4.1.1/distrib/$ATHENA_SYS.

For users who've already installed the scheduled backup archive, we'd
need to talk them through patching what's already installed, or patch and
rebuild the tar archives, and tell them to reinstall them- neither option
thrills me...

I'm also generally reluctant to start fiddling with vendor software, unless
the fix is straightforward and we fully understand the consequences..

I'll wait to hear from you further as to the best way to proceed.
