Hello everyone,  just looking for some expert input regarding  backup data
conversion from
one server to another server.

The bottlenecks are  :
The conversion is from  a  MVS  adsm-server 3.1 to  aix 4.3 adsm-server  3.7
The data in MVS is in  3940E  (910MB/1.3GB)  (compressed data)  tapes  to be
converted to
                     AIX  tape drive  STK  9840  (20 GB/30 GB) (compr data)
format.
We are not using any direct tape conversions.

The nodes are currently convered one at a time  using server-to-server
communications,
using a middle server as repository.  This works, but takes 1-day or more for
conversion/node.
However  5 to 10 nodes can be exported and imported at same time.  (we have
about 500 nodes to convert).
Storage copy is tried using server-comm, but database and node rebuilds are
problem.

Let me know if anyone has  any faster way of  this type of conversions.....any
any expert inputs are welcome....

Thanks,
Vijay.
