When we upgraded our server a year and a half ago, we also upgraded our Tivoli from ADSM Ver. 3.1X to TSM Ver. 3.7X The method we chose was: 1. Performed a fresh install of Ver. 3.7 to the new server from the CD, and applied the latest PTF. 2. Set up database volumes, log volumes, defined the storage pools, etc. 3. Made sure that everything was working OK on the new server. 4. Upgraded ADSM on the old server to the same level TSM as the new server. 5. Ran the upgraded server for a few days without any problems. 6. Backed up the database on the old server, and restored the database to the new server.

Hello, Just need some advice to push me in the right direction. I am currently running ADSM 3.1 (stoneage I know) with a IBM3570 Magstar. We have bought TSM version 4.2 and IBM3583 that I will install. What would the advice be to upgrade the old version of ADSM or to make a complete new installation?? A second question is, is it possible to run 2 dsm servers on the same system at the same time?......would be just temporarely..... We run this on a RS6000 with AIX 4.3 Med vanliga halsningar / Best Regards Henrik Hansson Albany Door Systems AB Tel + 46 35 14 73 00 Fax + 46 35 14 73 99 Web; www.albanydoorsystems.com Mail; [EMAIL PROTECTED]
