First off, to determine if your hardware is enough, it would be useful to know
the size of your envinvironment (db size, amount of daily data, total amount of
data).
As for 6.2 in general, the internal housekeeping of TSM is alot faster. One of
the main issues for alot of people during 5.5 was expiration processing. With
the new features such as multi-threading, expiration now goes alot faster.
TSM 6.2 requires abit more hardware, but overall, all environments I've
upgraded this far has seen performance increase across the board. So I believe
the risk that your performance would go down to be very, very small.
I think IBM mentioned somewhere that overall database performance has been
increase threefolded with the implementation of DB2 as a database engine.

Ärende: [ADSM-L] TSM Performance 5.5 vs 6.2
I need to show management that simply upgrading TSM from 5.5 to 6.2 will not
cause a degradation in performance. I know a lot of upgrades are done by
moving to new hardware. We don't have that luxury. We are currently running
on AIX 6.1 on p520 server. I've already upped memory to 32gb.
Anyone have any experience to share?
Thanks
Dave
