Minor change (upgrade S7A to TSM 5.1) and you are on a supported track.
The rest is fine.

        Subject:        Database question


Part of our upcoming move includes moving from TSM 4.2.1.9 on AIX 4.3.3 on
RS6000 S7A to TSM 5.1.5.4 on P670 on AIX 5.2.
I've set up an instance of TSM at that level on the P670. Now I'm trying
to
fathom the best way to actually move the database
over. I'm going to be dropping all the disk and tape connections from the
S7A and connecting them to the P670. I'll have time
to get all the devices defined and paths defined, so that with the
exception of the path statements, the storage pools, libraries
tape drives, log directories, db directories and files will all be
configured the same as before. My question is this: If I did all the
above, could I simply do a "dsmserv upgradedb" and let it fly?
I'm sure this isn't supported, so I'm just wondering aloud.

Thanks!!
