Subject: Export Archive files from one TSM server to another

I recently tried exporting just the archived files of a node registered
on our old TSM server to the same node on our new TSM server that we are
migrating to.  On the new server, the node has been backing up without
any problems.  I executed the below command:
 
 
export node NODENAME filedata=archive toserver=SERVERNAME
mergefilespaces=yes
 
When I did this, it created some new filespaces that existed on the old
tsm server onto the new tsm server.  Basically I now had 2 c$ filespaces
as well as 2 d$ filespaces (one unicode, one not).  All of a sudden, the
client started to backup to the newly created c$ and d$ filespace that
were not unicode and acted as if the client had never backed up before,
so it did a full backup.  Why is this?  I just want to export all of our
archived data to the new TSM server so we can shutdown the old one.  Any
suggestions?
