New TSM-Server

[schleife]

Hi all,
we have tsm-server (vers. 5.2.1.6) running under windows-nt
with an attached 3583-lib.
we plan to create a new server (new Hardware, old library)
under windows 2003 amd tsm vers. 6.x.

what is the best way to get the new server running whith
the old library?

thanks

1. Build the new server, install OS and TSM, power it down
2. Backup old server's TSM DB (i'd use snapshot backup but any is fine really)
3. Halt TSM on old server
4. Power down old server
5. Disconnect 3583 from old server
6. Connect 3583 to new server
7. Now perform TSM recovery procedure and recover TSM DB you backed up in step #2.
8. Test

you're done..
