The organization I belong to in IBM was involved in the beta program for
TSM V6. We assisted customers in the installation and training for the new
release. I did the education for the DB Upgrade process, and also assisted
in some of the testing for it. I'd like to pass on several comments here
concerning this post.

1. IBM set a goal for the DB Upgrade process of 5GB/hr, and that is the
expectation we'd like to set. As people have said, YMMV, and we have seen
cases where customers have gotten much better than this. There are a lot of
factors that can influence the upgrade performance, but the expectation or
goal is 5GB/hr.
2. The final code is not finished yet. Remember, announcement was this
week, but GA is not until end of March. There are still a few enhancements
that development is considering to possibly speed this up.
3. I would strongly suggest attending a Storage Technical Exchange being
given 2/26 (8:00 am PST) on an overview of TSM V6. This is NOT a session
that will go into details of the functions of V6. It is more of a session
to explain the considerations that should be thought about before starting
the migration to TSM V6. We're going to talk about things you may want to
consider such as hardware requirements, software requirements. space
requirements, and upgrade techniques to the new database.  Lots of
questions are being raised here about what this migration will involve. I
would suggest asking them at this session.
