We used server to server to export the nodes to an AIX TSM server.  We had 
a 20gig database with several hundred nodes that we migrated.  We did the 
migration a node at a time over a 4 month period.  We would lock the node, 
do the export, then import on the AIX server, add the node to a schedule, 
and then notify the customer that he needed to change the ip address for 
the TSM server.  You need a lot of patience because if you get an error 
there is no way to restart the export where you left off.  For some of our 
larger nodes we ended up exporting them a filespace or several filespaces 
at a time.
