The thing to worry about is the permission to the CIFS paths.  Domain trust 
relationships aside, the account that the TSM scheduler/CAD is running under 
will still need to be able to access all the CIFS paths that you are backing 
up.  

If you only change the domain of the server, but everything else remains the 
same (i.e. the old domain stays up and running) there *shouldn't* be a problem 
because the old service account should still be in there referring to the 
original domain service account.  Just make sure that migration tool doesn't 
mess with the TSM scheduler "log on as" account in the Windows services control 
panel.

If they plan on decommissioning the old domain, then you will need to get a new 
service account on the new domain and make sure that account is permissioned 
for all the shares you want to back up.

To clarify, the Windows Domain that this backup server logs into - not TSM 
domain.
