Presuming the disk are SSA disk.  UNLOAD/LOAD is not CPU intensive based on
what I have seen from others, I think you can expect 6 hours to unload and 4
to 5 to load it back.  You can cancel the unload without having to restore
your database from backup a backup.  But, you are committed to the load once
you start it or a database restore.  So, you do want to do at least a
DBSnapshot then backup devconfig and backup volhistory before taking down
your system to do the unload/load so you can recover if the unload tape has
a problem during the load.

4.1.2 is a really old level of TSM, no support, you are on your own except
what folks can do for you from the list.

Good Luck.

Paul,

I have a 3580 LIbrary and the TSM server is running in AIX 4.3.3 version on
TSM is 4.1.2 and we are in the process of updating it but I wanted to do a
unload and load of database before the update so that it's nice and clean.

The TSM server capacity is a SP node with 2 CPU's and 2 GB memory ( PHYSICAL
).

With regards,

It really depends on the hardware you have.
