Hi fellas,
I need to upgrade a TSM installation. It is currently running TSM 7.1.1.300 on Server 2008 R2 (not sure if SP1 at the moment). It needs to get to SP 8.1.5 for the Tier-to-Cloud option. To do this the OS needs to be upgraded first to Server 2012 (minimum). However, It needs to be on the same hardware. Spec-wise the hardware is compatible and exceeds the IBM Blueprint suggestions.
Has any anybody done an in-place OS upgrade of a TSM server and live to tell about it? Just curious if there are to many gotchas and am better off with a clean install of the OS and a restore of the TSM DB?
Thanks in advance.
