Re: AS/400 backup to TSM

Hi Joe Thats correct. Only the user data can be backed up using BRMS and the TSM api. To backup all system-defined objects, you will still need to use a locally attached tape library/drive. We've also seen perfomance issues with this solution, as the BRMS and TSM api first backs up to disk,

It doesn't sound like they are talking about the same thing. The consultant sounds like he wants to backup SITE-A servers to the local TSM and then send the copypool over to the other server via virtual volumes. Khalid wants to backup SITE-A servers over the link directly to SITE-B TSM server.
