Hi,

Need some quick advice.

I have to test the server upgrade to V5.5 from V5.3.2.0.

I have a basic vanilla install of 5.3.2.0 on AIX but have no access to a
tape drive to restore the TSM database from the live environment.  Whats the
easiest way to get a DB backup to this server to restore it? Is it to create
a new devclass of "file" and drop it to that?  Any guidance gratefully
received.

All RTFM replys please spare me.  It's not something I've done before.

Cheers

Jim
