Re: change TSM server to a new AIX box. What is the way? [Virus checked]

        That looks like the correct procedure. We have moved multiple
TSM servers between AIX hosts and have had no problems. Just make sure
that the server configuration files are all copied over and you should
be fine.

Subject: change TSM server to a new AIX box. What is the way? [Virus

Hi,

our TSM Server (Version 5.1.8) is a SP wide node (AIX 5.2_ML02). Now I
want change the server to a new pSeries standalone p615. Our
TSM-diskstoragepool, the database and the logs are on SSA-Disks.

So I think that I must install the new node with the same AIX level and
TSM level (mksysb is not so easy, because it is a SP-node). After this I
stop the old TSM server. Connect the ssa disks on the new node, import
the volumegroups, change the ip configuration on the new node (so that
it is the same as on the old server), connect the library, mount
filesystems, check that device conf, volhis, database and logs are in
right path and than I can start the TSM-Server.

Is this the way?

Best regards,
Frank
