Get out an envelope and a piece of paper. On the envelope write: "To my successor: When you consider migrating your TSM server to a different platform, open this envelope."
Write everything up to this point including this sentence on the piece of paper. Put the paper in the envelope and put it in the top drawer of your desk. *** On a more serious note, I talked to a person moving a TSM server from AIX to HP-UX but couldn't find any citation supporting or un-supporting the practice. She did do some testing to make sure one system could read the other's private tapes. This would seem to be one of the big hurdles. The urban legend is that such a thing is not possible. I suspect the legend is true.

We are going to migrate this to a SUN Solaris Server, Solaris 5.10. Primary client is solaris, ~80TB active data, ~300TB of inactive/archive data. Can anyone point me to a Redbook or the section in the Admin Guide to help me understand what I am going to have to do? So far, the Admin Guide explains migrating, but, only to another system with the same O/S.
