Since it's all AIX, you will be able to restore the old TSM database on the
new TSM server and voila. Note that your drive and library definitions in
the restored server will definitely be wrong. Fix those up either with an
update drive, update library, or delete and start over with the
defininitions. You can then check in the tapes and you should be all set.

Subject: Server Migration
Hello..
I currently have 1 IBM 3466 B03, 1 IBM 3466 C30, and TSM on 390.
The B03 is being replaced by a C01. B03 is a microchannel RS/6000 running
ADSM
3.1.2.50
The C01 will be a PCI H70 RS/6000 running TSM 3.7.2.0. I will be
responsible
for migrating all the
data from the B03 to the C01. Both Servers/3494's are at the same location
so I
think import/export
may not be the fastest approach. Basically the swing over will take place
over
one weekend.
Does anyone have any guidance as to what my approach should be to make the
swing
and migrate
all the data over to the new machine? Transporting the old tapes to the new
machine would not be
a problem. The only difference between the new and old 3494 ATL will be the
drives. The B03 has
3590 B1A's (4 of them) and the C01 will have 6 3590 E1A's.
Please bare with me.. I'm new (TSM admin for 1 month).
Thanks in advance... Denis
