TSSM Migration Utility Enhancement

Customer is migrating from AIX to Linux per a corporate mandate to move to Linux. Customer already upgraded from TSM 5.x to 6.x using the migration utility to migrate from the proprietary TSM datatabase to DB2. They used IBM ECM Services for this work. They also could have used this utility to migrate from AIX to Linux but did not do this and were not advised by the services group to do this. Now the utility cannot be used for the migration from AIX to Linux from their current 6.2.3 version of TSM. More information is contained on the attached document.
