AS2000 on Win 2003 ???

[anawrocki]

Has anyone sucsessfully deployed AS2000 on W2K+3 yet? I installed AS2000 and SP4 on a new server and I am getting the following error when I try to view the tape drive thru AS.

"This is a shared device on a distributed server and the tapeengine is unable to connect to the primary server"

Any help would be appreciated.

AS2000 does NOT support W2K3. You need to use AS9 for that.
There are ways to make that message go away, but do you really want to?
cheers

It went away after I re-installed AS2000. I did not see anything on CAs web site that showed what OSs AS2000 supported. I am not suprised to hear that however. Oh well, it is working for now and it is not mission critical. If it becomes mission critical I will be going the Veritas rout anyhow

Thanks for the post.
