We are making plans for the upgrade from 5.5 -> 6.2 this Spring. One, of many, thing that's causing much headscratching is consistency. I know that the Library Manager must be first. Since it has no clients, no problems with the conversion. However, the LAN-FREE storage agents, which must be at the same level as the LM, are all on our largest instance, which I'd prefer to leave till last in the conversion schedule. We think that the client level for those machines must also be at the same level as the LM. Also on that instance are the datamovers using NDMP. We're not sure if those must also be at the same level as the LM. We think the approach should be : 1. Upgrade the LM, 2. Upgrade the necessary agents and clients, and 3. Tackle a less complicated instance to convert completely. Are we thinking in the right track here? All thoughts appreciated. Another unanswered question is whether we can do the conversion directly into 6.2, or do we have to go 6.1.0 -> 6.2? If the latter, will we have to pass quickly thru 6.1.2? I hope this will be addressed in the documentation, whenever that becomes available. Fred Johanson TSM Administrator University of Chicago 773-702-8464
