Re: [ADSM-L] TSM server upgrade from v5.5 to v6.2

Hello,
You cannot export metadata only, if you want to keep your source TSM server
available during migration, you need to use "hybrid method" to export newa data
and meta-data to the new server after the migration has completed. See this
article :
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli%20Storage%20Manager/page/Tivoli%20Storage%20Manager%20Version%206%20Hybrid%20Upgrade%20Migration%20Method
Note that migration could take much less time than you think as IBM statements
are generally very conservative. Has you already run a test migration using the
same target hardware ?
Why are you choosing 6.2 as target version ? You'd probably prefer 6.3.4+.

Objet: Re: [ADSM-L] TSM server upgrade from v5.5 to v6.2
I have new hardware migration plan but has any one tried this approach
Step1: Build new hardware with same hostname but temp IP address and connect
all the network cables ( it has backup vlan)
Same hostname will not impact DB2 database restart
Step 2: Take flash copy backup and mount TSM 5.5 server in the new hardware
Step 3: upgrade 5.5 to 6.2 and it might take 50 hrs and it will not have 50 hrs
data in the new TSM server
Step 4 : once TSM upgrade completed then swap production up address and bring
to production
Old server will be available with temp IP address
It Will take 8 hrs for this cut over
Here is my challenge starts
How to copy 50 hrs difference to my new database
Is there any way to export 50 hrs of meta data ?
If it's having only 2 weeks retention then I will straight away decommission
hit after 2 weeks but it has daily long retention jobs
Please feel free to comment and your help is really appreciated
