We have been running TSM on VM since ADSM Version 1. Since it hasn't been updated in years we need to migrate to another platform. Originally we had hoped to move it to Linux/390 but its (LINUX-390) lack of support for ESCON connections to our ESS-800 and our 3494 libs make that impossible. Instead we plan to move it to our Z/OS 1.4 system. We also plan to consolidate an old RS/6000 TSM 3.1 system onto this box (Our AIX apps are slowly being moved to LINUX since we have been finding more of our technical software vendors, such as Pro-Engineer, dropping development of AIX apps in favor of Windows and Linux). We plan to hire our TSM reseller to help with the conversion.
The VM version required a trivial amount of systems support (adding nodes and tape volumes was about it). What types of issues have other VM TSM sites found in migrating of off the VM version? Ron Greve SDSU Admin and Research Computing Services
