Hi
The current environment looks like this..
1 x TS3500 with a L32 library frame plus
1 x D52
2 x D53
1 x S54 frames
1174 cartridges
The library is used by a library manager and 3 library clients running TSM 6.3.4.2
(old I know but its nearly decomissioned)
The library has 22 LTO5 tape drives
So the people that support this are planning to replace the L32 library frame and I wanted to get down a plan of action for this procedure.
Will the tape drive WWPN's stay the same ?
High level I guess its along the lines of
checkout all the tapes
del paths / drives / library definition on lib manager
swap hardware
redefine libary / drives / paths
checkin scratch tapes
checkin private tapes with correct client owner
Thanks alot
