Posting here because it seems the most logical forum for this question, apologize if I am wrong.
My company currently has TSM 5.1.1 running in Win2k SP2 server. We would like to migrate our TSM server to linux (it's the only production machine that is non-linux) for better stability and our staff is more familiar with linux.
I plan on posting at least this question in the 'Library' forum, but figured I'd ask here too just in case. I am running an IBM 3600 LTO library via LVD SCSI, are there any known issues in getting this library to work with RedHat7.2 or 7.3?
We have a small staff and the rest of the sysadmin's (as well as our owner) have labeled me as the TSM-guru, which I really am not. We've had TSM here since mid-Sept, so we're all pretty inexperienced. I know I need to do the following for the migration:
pray
Migrate all data in diskpoool to tapepool
pray
backup volhist
pray
backup db
pray
am I missing anything?
I need to know how to get this data reincorporated into the linux-installed TSM server. We do not have DRM, which I am unsure of its applicability since we're changing platforms. If there are any forum posts that might help me out, I'd appreciate a pointer to them (I searched, but couldnt find anything - still learning the TSM jargon so maybe I missed one someehere).
Thanks for taking the time to read this and thanks in advance for any feedback and/or assistance.
