Hi David,

No...it is not successful...check the output below...I am calling the servers 
TSM_SOURCE and TSM_TARGET to make this easier:

tsm: TSM_SOURCE>ping server tsm_target
ANR1705W Ping for server 'TSM_TARGET' was not able to establish a connection.
ANS8001I Return code 4.

The same happens the other way around.

What about the TCP Port (lladdress)? I´ve configured different tcp ports in 
each 
server....is that correct?

tsm: TSM_SOURCE>q server
Server               Comm.      High-level         Low-level       Days     
Server
Name                 Method     Address           Address        Since     
Password

------     --------
TSM_TARGET     TCPIP      xx.xx.xx.xx      1919              <1        Yes


tsm: TSM_TARGET>q server

------     --------
TSM_SOURCE     TCPIP      xx.xx.xx.xx     1500                <1         Yes

Mario

Hi Mario,

What does a `PING SERVER TSM_DEDALUS` from the source TSM Server admin CLI
give you - is this successful?

Cheers,

Subject: [ADSM-L] Export server error

Hi list,

I am trying to export all data from a TSM Server to a new one. Both servers
are TSM 5.5.0.0 servers. I have defined the TARGET server on the SOURCE and
vice versa, specifying a password and TCP Port (lladdress) for both servers.
When I issue the EXPORT SERVER command with the PREVIEWIMPORT set to YES I
get the following error on the SOURCE server:

07/17/2010 18:29:44      ANR2017I Administrator ADMIN issued command: EXPORT

The problem is that the TARGET server is refusing the connection....but
why?? NO messages appear in the ACTLOG at the TARGET server.

What could be wrong? What am I missing?

Mario
