Has anyone successfully moved a TSM server from one platform to another,
copying the database via BACKUP DB and RESTORE DB commands? We are looking
at moving from AIX (RS-6000) to HP (N-Class) in this way, but IBM are
suggesting that this won't work as the TSM database might be
platform-dependent. They suggest using export/import for the all the nodes,
but we have 23 Tb of backup data so that would be impossible. IBM 3494 with
3590E drives is used to hold the data.

Thanks
