OK, I can do that. Does this mean you think it is a better solution to migrate
over the network using virtual volumes? If so, is ADSM3.1 and TSM4 compatible
regarding virtual volumes?

No, most of the data needs to be migrated. 1TB is archived data and I'm not
happy about expiring the 3TB backuped data (perhaps expiring half of it would
be acceptable), also both the old server and old library will be sold within
weeks.
