We're looking at moving from 5.3.2.0 in the next six weeks; we've got a new TS3500 on the floor with LTO-4 drives we need to support.
We'll be knocking together a test server in a few days, validating it, and then upgrading it. Then we'll do what testing we can (our problems have historically been throughput/volume related, and I can't get enough of either in a test environment) and upgrade the primary server. Then we'll start checking out the new library in test, followed by adding it as a second library to the production system and migrating to it over a three-week period. If nothing breaks. So far, I'm PO'd that IBM/Tivoli no longer provides a documentation CD (the last one was for TSM 5.3) and I've had to pull down the pdf format manuals. A pointer to the infocenter web site is NOT acceptable documentation; one of my mandates is to have all such documentation available for reference during D/R without an internet connection.

Just wanted to know if anyone's made the jump. We just got in a new server and will be moving from v5.3.1.2 to either 5.4 or 5.5. Just wanted to know what your thoughts were on migrating? God bless you!!!
