I looked at the release notes of the TSM client 4.2.0 and it states:
o The functionality of the Tivoli Storage Manager Linux client is designed
and tested to work on file systems of the common types EXT2, ReiserFS,
VFAT, NFS (see under known problems and limitations for supported
environment), and ISO9660 (CD-ROM). Backup and archive for other file
system types is not excluded. They will be tolerated and performed in
compatibility mode.
This means that features of other file systems types may not be supported
by the Linux client. These file system type information of such file
systems will be forced to unknown.
So I guess XFS will work with this version, but without support for ACL and
extended attributes.
I am using Legato Networker for my Linux machines with several XFS
filesystems myself. It works without problems. I am not using ACLs or
extended attributes right now.
