Thanks for the reference. I should have mentioned I already looked at this.
My bosses requirements are: ANY product must be supported by IBM/Tivoli for usage on a TSM server. Point-in-time recovery is mandatory, or there is no point to using any product. >From what I have read (correct me if I am wrong) about using mysqldump, it doesn't do/support this process.

We are increasingly expanding MySQL use and since IBM currently doesn't offer a TDP for MySQL, we are looking at other commercial products like Zmanda Recovery Manager ( http://www.zmanda.com/tivoli-mysql-backup.html) Zoltan Forray TSM Software & Hardware Administrator Virginia Commonwealth University UCC/Office of Technology Services zfor...@vcu.edu - 804-828-4807 Don't be a phishing victim - VCU and other reputable organizations will never use email to request that you reply with your password, social security number or confidential personal information.
