Subject: [ADSM-L] Hardware upgrade question(s)



hi all, i'm sure you can help me ...

we are getting ready for hardware upgrade of our old TSM servers , old
servers

are IBM p640 and new ones are p520 or something like that i really don't
know

because management simply forgets to forward this information :-) ... anyhow

i know there was a lot of discussion here on list about migration of TSM to
new

hardware and i was always missing a part ... the procedure should go

something like

this i believe (please correct me and add stuff)



- install new servers

- cable connections to switches

Install IBM  device drivers for the Library

- install TSM server software

- define TSM db and logs

- define drives (can i define drives if they are already defined to

old TSM server?)



Enable Library Sharing by defining shared library for the new TSM server.

- ?

- ?

- when and how should i import the database ?



Restore Database by taking the Old server Latest DB tape

- can i have 2 TSM server running parallel using same drives in tape

library (3584 with LTO3) ?



You can use Library Sharing Among two TSM instances
