If you dont have space in your library, none of the options will work. Both 
require you to export/import data, which in turn requires space for the new TSM 
server in your library.

No way of making space? Perhaps some old data that you can check out of your 
library and have outside the library? A copypool you can remove?

If there's no way of making space in the library, it's going to be a hard thing 
migrating your TSM server from the Windows box to the Linux box, all available 
options require that you do a export/import since moving the database from 
Windows to Linux isnt supported.

Ärende: [ADSM-L] Migrate TSM server ( Win to Linux)

The Library we have does support partitioning,but it is packed to capacity with 
ability to accommodate  just 5 more tapes.So i do'nt think a secondary library  
for the Linux server will help.

So Daniel as you were saying i will :
1. Setup Library Manager /client between by New & old TSm servers

2.Import TSM database/policies/schedules  info from old TSM server to New TSm 
server

3.Switch Library Manager to New TSM sever
