Since DRM does not manage the volumes, and AIX has not tape management tool
(similar to RMM or TMS for OS/390) it will have to be done manually.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong.
We use backupsets on our OS/390 server, but not the AIX server due to
management issues.

Hi, TSMers,
We are running TSM 4.2 on AIX4.3.3 and I have 2 questions that couldn't
find answers from books.
1. Now that I started to generate backupsets for several nodes, but I
couldn't tell which volumes belong to which node when 'q libvol'. The
server shows only 'backupset' and when 'q vol xxxxxxxx f=d', it doesn't
give any info about vol of backupset. I plan to take them to off-site,
but when it expires (30 days), how I do know which need to come back to
on-site? Any recommendation for managing volumes of backupsets?
2. Does TSM supports to generate backupset or client image backup on
DVD-ROM? My clients wouldn't fit on 1 or 2 regular CD-ROM.
Thanks for your expertise!!
