It took us less than 45 minutes for the upgrade from 5.2.3.1 to 5.4.0.3. Our database is nearly 470GB although it's currently at 28% utilized (yes, I know, it's a long story...), and runs on a P650.
Of greater concern is that the performance at the new code does not seem to be as good, in a rather vague and intermittent way. We are seeing behavior that suggests that it's not always releasing network communications properly, but not all the time and not for all communications. We have not seen this in either of the two much smaller environments that it's been installed on. So if you have a lot of connections on a daily basis, you might start seeing some impact. We've opened a ticket to IBM I would love to know if you (or anyone else) see any behavior differences over time at 5.4. I haven't seen much here in the way of complaint but I don't know if that means it's really great stable code, or if there just aren't many people using it yet. Or both, and we're flukey. :-) _________________________________ Kathleen Hallahan Freddie Mac Daad Ali <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[email protected]> 07/17/2007 12:20 PM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[email protected]> To [email protected] cc Subject upgrade of 200 GB DB I am planning to upgrade my 200 GB TSM 5.2.6 Database to 5.4 Does anyone have any estimate on how long that will take? I do realise there are many other variables but wondering how long it will take roughly. TSM log is 12 GB My LPAR is a P550 with 4 CPUs and 10 GB of memory. thank you in advance.
