I know that AIX can't go to Windows with a DB backup/restore, but I seem
to remember that it might be possible to go to another unix, pre-TSM6.
Might be worth looking into considering Linux is an option.
Also, keep in mind that the NAS data will need to continue to live on the
Library Manager.
If you do end up restoring/re-backing up the data, just back it up using
NFS/CIFS to avoid this situation in the future. I'm currently trying to
get free of NDMP..

[ADSM-L] TSM Server migration
I have a TSM V5.5 server on AIX. I need to get all of the data to a
Windows or Linux TSM environment on x86.
Export node will work well for everything EXCEPT a NAS node (you have to
really love these little caveats and exceptions). A backup/restore or
unload/load will probably fail due to big-endian/little-endian
incompatibilities between the architectures.
Does anyone have any recommendations for getting the NAS node data to
the new server?
I am thinking that I will have to do a full restore to a spare NAS
device and then back it all up again.
The current server is idle and the new destination server has yet to be
built so it is wide open regarding linux/windows, TSM V5/V6 - I can
pretty much do what I need to do to get this data moved (goodness knows
that I shouldn't do what I want to do...grrrrr!)
Your comments are appreciated.
Cheers,
Neil Strand
