Joe...

Another suggestion for your conversion....after pointing your disk pool
to the new 3590POOL...if you're able to, wait a while (week or two or
more if you're able to have a stage in period) before pointing the
OLDTAPEPOOL (3480s) to the new 3590POOL and doing the tape to tape
migration.  By doing this, you will be starting all migrations of newly
backed up data to the new cartridges...this will steadily expire
older data off of your OLDTAPEPOOL...this will cut down on the amount
of data you'll need to actually transfer (migrate) from your OLDTAPEPOOL
to the new 3590POOL (when you go ahead with that step)

hope this helps...greg tevis
