Hi everyone,

Currently we're running TSM 4.2.3.0 on AIX, attached to an IBM 3583
library. I'm curious about the prospects of migrating the TSM system
from AIX to Solaris.

1. Is it feasible to do this with the same library? (does the existing
data on the 3583 tapes need to be converted, or can a TSM database be
exported from AIX to Solaris, and the new server read from the existing
data?)

2. Is there a guide to doing this with the new versions of TSM? I recall
folks talking about an old ADSM Redbook, but I don't know if the same
rules apply to TSM.

I imagine this is a vast topic, so I'll start with these questions.
Thanks!
