Our TSM 5.5 database is little more than 100GB (6 X 20GB at 83% full)

How big is your TSM 5.5 data base?

Subject: [ADSM-L] Upgrading paht from TSM 5.5 to 6.1

Hi,

To make the upgrade from TSM 5.5 to 6.1, our "reseller support" tell us that 
they prefer to do a fresh install of tsm v6.1 and import all tape written by 
tsm 5.5 so all the tape will be now written by TSM 6.1. They tell us it will be 
safer that way. We have more than 2000 tapes to import.

That way to upgrade look weird to me. Can you comment on that?
Should I ask another opinion before let them go that way and pay for that?
