Maybe only restore the "Long Term Archive Data" to then be backed up to the new TSM environment, then otherwise let the VNB images expire. The only downside is having to have the VNB environment hang around a while. This idea was the suggested "Conversion" from IBM and Veritas CE's

This is sort of a hack way of doing it but I don't see why it wouldn't work just restore one of each version starting with the oldest then backup each one deleting them one at a time in the same mount point this way. TSM will have the same type of versioning setup that VNB did?...(well sort of). Just a thought. If anyone else has a better supported method I'd be interested as well. thanks!. --Justin Richard Bleistein Unix Systems Administrator (Sungard eSourcing) Desk: (856) 566 - 3600 Cell: (856) 912 - 0861 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Poland, Neil" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] INC.COM> cc: Sent by: "ADSM: Subject: Migrating Veritas to TSM Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] .EDU> 03/19/2003 04:06 PM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" Has anyone migrated a Veritas environment to TSM? Is there a way to move data stored on Veritas managed tapes to tapes managed by TSM?
