I have a slightly different situation. I would like to replace a server without causing a full backup. I want to replace server NAS1 with a new box named SRV1. We have an (M:) drive on NAS1. We are removing that LUN and presenting the (M:) drive to SRV1. How do I get TSM filespace \\NAS1\M$ to \\SRV1\M$ without causing a full backup?

I've done this many times in Unix.
