In fact, I want to replace library AND server, that's why I want to use
the Import/Export function.
1) I want to export the old server data from the old library to the new
library connected to the old server
2) I connect the new library containing the exported data to the new
server
and at that point my question is :
How can I ask the new server to import the data contained on tapes he
does not know ?
Thanks

First, if the tape drives are the same in the two libraries, I would
simply
update the existing devclass to point to the new library. If I remember
right then it is simply a matter of checking the tapes into the new
library.
If a tape contains TSM data it is always private.
Second, I would consider 'moving' the data. Start by reconnecting your
pools
to the new library to make sure all the new data is going to the new
library. Once you are happy that it is working properly, start moving
the
data from tape volumes.
Third, read over the import and export functions very carefully. I'm not
sure if the import/export function is really what you want to use to
migrate
your data to the new library.
