We have one AS/400 and already had a 3494 library with 3590 drives for TSM. Since BRMS or Robot Save would have been required with TSM, we attached the AS/400 directly to one of the dual ported 3590 drives and share the library. At night the AS/400 uses the drive with BRMS. The drive is online to TSM during the day for storage pool copy activity.
This setup also provides better performance than tramitting the AS/400 data over a network to TSM.

I would like to know how folks who have an AS/400, backup their systems, to TSM and their experiences (good or bad) ! Last time I visited this issue, IBM did not support this (last client seems to be 3.x something) and you had to go to the HELP SYSTEMS/ROBOT folks. However, I have not had much luck in searching their site for info. Unfortunately, IBM seems to be updating the TSM client page (I keep getting a blank page) !! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Zoltan Forray Virginia Commonwealth University - University Computing Center e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - voice: 804-828-4807
