Request for 64Bit HSM Client Package for AIX System

We have installed 64Bit BAClient 6.2.2.0 in all AIX clients. There is a customer requirement to deploy HSM on 1000+ AIX Client.As per the PMR support we have downloaded the HSM pacakage CZGL7ML.tar.gz from passport advantage site. We tried to extract the same code and there is only 64Bit HSM
available in the package. The 32 Bit package is looking for "/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin". In the system we have the path "/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin64". So the installation of HSM code is getting failed.

    Thank you for submitting the request. This is a recognized requirement and a solution appears to be desirable. The fix will be in 2013 release. IBM’s plans may change and no commitment is made that a solution will be provided.
