Hi Jim,
AIX upgrade is the easiest one, here are the steps I use:
1) download the latest PTF from IBM site : TSM 4.1.3 and 4.1.2.x for client
put the extracted BFF packages in the same directory as the base filesets
you have on your CDs,
2) Stop TSM after having checked :
disks stg are empty (not mandatory)
no tapes in drives,
no running sessions,
you did a FULL DB backup
you backed-up DEVCONFIG and VOLHISTORY
3) CD to your /BFFpackages_repository dir and
% smitty update_all
4) TSM will remove older packages, install new ones and run a UPGRADE DB if
needed.
5) restart it,
6) if you think your DB is "fragmented", run a UNLOADDB / LOADDB
