I may be missing something here of course.

I also don't see a need for deleting and redefining the paths, drives
and libraries. As I said, I connected our library from the old (AIX5.1)
to the new server (AIX5.3). Although the AIX devices changed from
rmt1-rmt6 to rmt0-rmt5, and although I renamed the TSM drives from
DRIVE1-DRIVE6 to DRIVE0-DRIVE5, as soon as I restored the database on
the new server, TSM was running without problems. There were no tapes
missing and all backups and restores were running as if nothing happened.
