        Does anyone know of a Redbook or manual that would cover recovering
an AIX server to a different server type? We will be migrating SP widenodes
to rackmounted M80s. All the systems have external SSA excluding the
rootvgs.
        My concern is when we attempt to restore the rootvgs. Will we have
to manually go though and restore some system files while skipping others?
Our rootvgs hold /, /usr/, /etc/, /tmp/, and /home/.

        We haven't started anything so even suggestions on preventive
measures would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
