We have done this a year ago (5.5 --> 6.3.3.100).
For Windows TSM Clients:
1) stop all TSM services;
2) run TSM Installer from new agent;
3) start TSM services;
Notes: 1. Stopping TSM services is critical - reboot is required is any of the
services is not stopped!!!!!!
2) There are some limitations for Windows 2003 (we are using: TSM
Client 7.1 for Windows 2008/2012 and TSM Client 6.4.1 for Windows 2003, which
officially is not certified, but required for TBMR 7.1).
For AIX :
1) stop TSM services;
2) upgrade TSM Client by "smitty update_all";
3) start TSM services.
Notes: 1) Maximum allowed version for AIX 5.3 is 6.2 (6.2.4.4 in my case);
2) There is no limit for AIX 7.1 (7.1 in my case??);
For TDP:
1) for Oracle under AIX just "smitty update_all" for selected version (7.1 in
AIX 7.1);
2) for MS SQL it is much more complicated and you need to pay specific
attention for each used version and selected target version;
3) for Exchange see MS SQL.
I hope this information will help you at least a little bit:):)

Subject: [ADSM-L] Upgrading to v6 storage agent and TDPO
We just finished our TSM v5 to TSM v6 server upgrades. I'll have to say it
generally went very well. Lots of work but no real problems.
Now I have to upgrade a bunch of V5 Storage Agents and TDPO setups. I looked
at the upgrade guide and Storage Agent guide, but didn't find much on how to
upgrade them. All the storage agents are at v551, the highest v5. Let me ask
some questions . . .
- Do you have to uninstall v5 before running install.bin to upgrade/install to
v6?
- Since it's not installing DB2, is it possible to just run a smitty install of
the AIX binaries, instead of using the Java install.bin pgm?
- Any other thoughts/suggestions for upgrading a Storage Agent?
(Haven't looked at TDPO yet . . .)
Thanks
Rick
