Do you currently have SAN storage on the old server? Do you boot from the SAN storage, or is your rootvg on local/internal drives? Are you keeping that SAN storage, or replacing it also? If you currently use SAN storage, is your entire TSM db/log and any other filesystems on the SAN storage?
For example, we use internal disks for our boot volume (rootvg), so TSM is installed and lives on the internal drives. Our TSM server db/log and other related filesystems are all on external SAN storage. Depending on your answers, your migration to the new server could be very easy . . . just a storage swing.
