RE: Moving An AS/400

[Neil Palmer <npalmer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Do at least two complete system backups.  Don't put the two sets of
tapes in the same place.
Check to see if the company's insurance will cover damage if you move it
yourself and damage it, or does it have to be done by a moving company
who's insurance would cover damage.
