If you are just testing, just change the dsm.sys file on the client so that
tcpserveraddress points to the new TSM server.  Register the client on the
new server, and let it back up to the new server until your testing is done.
The old backups will stay intact so you can use them if you need them later.

If you want to actually move all the client's existing data to the new
server, look at the EXPORT function.  You can export the client from the old
server and import it into the new server.  ( You still need to change the
tcpserveraddress on the client to point to the new server.)  However, you
can only do this if you have compatible media  - i.e., you have some media
on your OS/390 system that you can EXPORT to, and the new server can read
that media.
