=== Known Issues ===

The following known issues are associated with this PIM:

*Help is not working in all the applets loading in Service Editor and Service Viewer portlet.
*Help is not working in all the applets loading via Service Map channel.
*User needs to click any of these three channels Event List, Service State, SLA Status twice to load the content properly. Once the content loads next time onwards the contents of these channels loads properly.

=== License Usage ===

In order for the AppBoard/enPortal administrator to configure the ibm.TBSM_pimE PIM, the AppBoard/enPortal license.properties file must include licensing for at least one ibm.TBSM_pimE server. The administrator can create one additional host ("target") in AppBoard/enPortal for each server license included in the license file.

Each AppBoard/enPortal user maintains one user session with the TBSM server. The TBSM application must be licensed to support the number of users that will be accessing the application through AppBoard/enPortal.

=== Version Support ===

The following matrix details the supported TBSM and compatible AppBoard/enPortal versions:

== TBSM Upgrades ==

=== Upgrading from an older version of TBSM to TBSM 6.1 ===

Older versions of TBSM are not supported by this PIM, so this upgrade path is not supported

=== Upgrading from TBSM 6.1 to a newer version of TBSM ===

Perform the following steps when the TBSM 6.1 server is upgraded to a newer version of TBSM:

# Check the AppBoard/enPortal PIM online documentation to see if the new TBSM version is supported by the existing ibm.TBSM_pimE PIM
## If the new TBSM version is supported by the existing PIM that you have installed, perform the following steps:
### Click on the Applications tab
### Right-click on the row for the old TBSM server and select "Modify"
### Update the protocol, host, and port to reference the server where the new version of TBSM is running
## If the new TBSM version is not supported by the existing PIM that you have installed, perform the following steps to upgrade the PIM:
### Download the new PIM version from the PIM download site
### Follow the steps in the Installation section above to install and configure the new PIM version
### Re-create all TBSM channels to reference the new PIM
### [Optional] Perform the steps outlined in the Uninstall section below to remove the old PIM from the system

== Uninstall ==

{{Warning|Uninstalling the ibm.TBSM_pimE PIM will break all of the channels in your AppBoard/enPortal system that reference this integration.}}
