Gabriel,
We are in the midst of an AIX to HP migration, but also changing to a new
HP library.... but i don't think tha matters. The issue we have is that
you can't backup the TSM database on AIX and restore it on HP-UX. It
won't read the tape. They suggested export/import, but we have over 60
Terabytes backed up; I figure it would take over 6 months and 600 DLT tapes
to do the migration.... so we are leaving the old server and lib online
until everything expires (we are lucky that is an option!).
How did you do it? Export/import? If so, how much data did you migrate?

Subject: export node or server on cross platform server migration
Hi *SMers,
we have to migrate our TSM -Server (4.2.1) from AIX / RS6000 to Win2000 /
Netfinity Intel.
has anyone expirience with this?
Our environment:
TSM 4.2.1 / AIX currently running backup for two clients within
seperate
storage pools
TSM 4.2.1 / WIN2000
3494-Library with 3 x 3590 Tapes
1x 3590 Tape Stacker IBM with 10 Slots
Would we have do this with "Export [Server| Node]" and after that
"Import [Server | Node]" ? And which one is the better Method ?
How could we resolve the problem, that we have to do backup of the Clients
during Export / Import?
The export /import will need about 14 days In this time we have to backup
about 100 GB. It is enough to define a disk storage pool for the clients
and
let them write their backups in this pool for 14 days while the ex/import
works only with tapes. And after finished import migrate the data from disk
to tape ?
Any ideas, comments or other suggestions ?
Thanks in advance for your help!
