But there is indeed a SANergy client for AIX. The Tivoli rep just quoted me a license. It requires 130 points. Then why can't I run the SANergy MDC on a W2K box to export the disk storage pool to the AIX SANergy client where the TSM server is. From this disk storage pool backup files will migrate to the 3494. The W2K box and the AIX TSM server will both be on the SAN. Eliza, why would you want to do this? What are you trying to achieve? Maybe we should take this off the list server.
