We currently have a TSM server (5.1.7.2) with around 20 clients using LAN-free (storage agents) and a greater number of clients backing up across the LAN. All the clients are Unix.
We have two 3584 tape libraries with fibre attached LTO2 drives. We are planning to install a second TSM server (5.3) to backup mainly Windows' clients and will have both LAN and LAN-free clients. I understand that the library manager must be at the highest level of any library client. Currently, the 5.1 server is both a data manager and the library manager (it being the only server <g>). I am thinking of adding a third TSM server (5.3) which would be ONLY the library manager. The other two servers would be the data managers and library clients. This would give me flexibility in upgrading. Reading the Admin Ref, Admin Guide and the SAN guide, I understand how to set the configuration up from scratch. Questions: 1) how do I go from my current configuration to my desired configuration? 2) how does DRM work in the new configuration?
