Hi. I've done this about 20 times in the last week, except I'm using
alt_disk_installs and mksysb's to disk.
Define a file devclass, then backup db type=full devc=fileclass
vol=/mydir/filename. Then, on your test box, mount mydir and copy your
devconfig (or simply ftp it if you have disk space), and do a dsmserv
restore db devc=fileclass volume=filename commit=yes
Good luck,
Alex

Subject: adsm 3.1 test
We are going to migrate from ADSM 3.1.2.20 to TSM 4.1, however, before we do
it on the production server we want to try it on a test server. We have a
test server running ADSM 3.1.2.90. We want to "copy" the current database
from production to test, tape drives are not connected to the test system,
and I can't do server-to-server option. How can I copy the production
database to the test database? NFS mounting is an option.
Thanks in advance for any help.
