Hello TSMers,

What constitutes the TSM server to backup a node which is moved to a new
piece of like hardware and keeps the same nodename and ip address?


We are migrating a couple servers from a remote location that are
currently backing up to a TSM server at this remote location which is at
TSM server version 5.4.1.0 and AIX operating system at 5.3.   There are a
few nodes that will keep their current node names and current ip addresses
but will be moving to a new piece of hardware.   We are exporting nodedata
and policy information to LTO tape and then importing that information
into my TSM server.    My question is when I go to do the first backup for
this node to my TSM server ,   Will my TSM server see this as a new node
and back it up as a full the first time or will it be business as  usual
and just perform an incremental backup.



Background:

TSM Server:
TSM Server Version:    5.5.1.0
Operating System:        AIX, 5.3

TSM Node:
TSM Client Version 5.4.1.4
Operating System:  Windows 2003
