Hi Zoltan,
You should open a PMR before you start with this upgrade.
The reason is that the 6.1 is based on DB2 9.5 and to get all functions in 
6.2/6.3 then do you need to run a couple of DB2 commands to convert all tables 
to 9.7 format.

But on top of that did everything work fine for me on all 3 servers we had when 
we upgraded from 6.1 to .6.2.1.0 and now are we upgrading from 6.2.4 to 6.3.3 
without any issue. My last one will be upgraded today.

Anybody performed such an upgrade by simply installing 6.2.4 (or 6.3)  and 
letting the automatic upgrade process take place and the upgrade going off 
without a hitch?  Any gotchas?  Anything I should prepare ahead for?

IMO, 6.1 has reached the end of the road and I would like to move forward, 
preferably without a complete rebuild (especially since ALL 2013 funding 
requests for TSM have been shot-down/nixed) Unfortunately, my lone 6.1 server 
is pretty critical.  Used to be a library manager but I was able to move that 
to another server, so that is one less headache.
