The "convert archive" command should have kicked in on its own if it was needed, and it's a one-time thing. Never heard of anything like this. I'd open a ticket with Tivoli.
What happens if you try to find the file with the client command line and -pick=? If that runs fast, and the GUI runs slow, it's a GUI problem...

This server had many things archived to manage their disk space. The server has been decommissioned, and its data moved from the 5.5.4 tsm server to a server running 6.2.4 via export / import node. We have given access to that data to another server running the 6.3.10 client. When they go to search for a file using the tsm 6.3.10 gui client the search may go for 10 to 15 hours. If the original 5.3.7 client is run from the original server, searches are completed in a reasonable length of time. Any ideas? I seem to remember something about a convert archive command, but I cannot locate it at the moment. Thanks for any help.
