That should work, I moved 2 TSM-servers using this method (one with SSA-disks and one with ESS-luns). To be on the safe side, I first migrated all data from disk to tape and made a DB-backup

[Virus checked] Hi, our TSM Server (Version 5.1.8) is a SP wide node (AIX 5.2_ML02). Now I want change the server to a new pSeries standalone p615. Our TSM-diskstoragepool, the database and the logs are on SSA-Disks. So I think that I must install the new node with the same AIX level and TSM level (mksysb is not so easy, because it is a SP-node). After this I stop the old TSM server. Connect the ssa disks on the new node, import the volumegroups, change the ip configuration on the new node (so that it is the same as on the old server), connect the library, mount filesystems, check that device conf, volhis, database and logs are in right path and than I can start the TSM-Server. Is this the way? Best regards, Frank
