You don't address making sure the 3494 will allow access by the TSM
server at site B.

There are two TSM servers, one at SiteA, the 2nd at SiteB

SiteA  manages two 3494 tape libraries, one at SiteA and the 2nd at
SiteB
(connected via longwave fibre), and is the tape library manager
for  both
TSM servers. The 3494 at SiteB is defined at shared.

All the volumes on the tape library at SiteB are now owned by the
TSM server
at SiteB.

The goal is to remove the client instance and have ServerB locally
manage
the library, and retain  its  current volumes.

The suggested procedure / sequence is:

1). Checkout the vols in the library at SiteB

2). Remove the 3494 defs for the 3494 at SiteB from the TSM server
at SiteA

3). Remove and redefine the library on the TSM server at SiteB (non-
shared)

4). Checkin the vols (private) in SiteB

5). Remove references in volhist on SiteA to volumes in 3494 in SiteB.

Anyone see a problem with this sequence?
