Good afternoon,
I need some good advice based on your operational experience...
Currently I have a TSM 7.1 Server with a library with 50 slots and two drives, fully loaded and almost full of information.
Due to the above I am buying a new infrastructure with a new library with more capacity.
On the new server, I will install TSM 8.1.5 and well, the query is related to the best way to migrate that information.
In your experience, what would be best?
a) install on the new server, a new TSM 7.1, dump and load the DB, then upgrade to 8.1.5 and then physically upload the tapes to the new library...
or
b) install 8.1.5 directly and then from 7.1 make an export server or directly replicate the 7.1 to 8.1.5 server
Thank you very much for your help.
