APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Running a Automatic Client deployment for a 64bit Linux client
  node,  the deployment may  fail with the following message
  logged  in the  setup.log:
  
  Failed dependencies:
       libstdc++.so.6 is needed by TIVsm-API
  .
  
  A manual install of the same code finishes successful.
  .
  
  Th issue is that the client auto-deployment is build on a 6.2
  API client foundation. Because the 6.2 client and API require
  the 32bit library  libstdc++.so.6, auto-deployment of a Linux
  client will have the same limation though the limitation doesn't
  apply to the V6.3 or above client.
  
  Version/Platform affected:
  
  Tivoli Storage Manager Client auto deployment of v6.3/V6.4
  client on Linux
  
  
  Additional keywords:
  
  libstdc++.so.6 automatic deployment dependencies libstdc++
  compat-libstdc++   32bit
  

Local fix

• Use manual install until fix available
