Dear gurus, 
The manual �Tivoli Storage Manager for AIX: Quick Start� v5.1 (First 
Edition, March 2002, GC32-0770-00) says �the backup-archive client is 
not supported with HACMP and should not be used on the production or 
standby nodes because it does not contain failover support� (pg. 74, 
par. �Installing the Tivoli Storage Manager Client on the Production 
Node�).

What does it mean? I�m quite sure that the following cascading-mutal 
takeover scenario could work fine:

Node A
Resource group node A: TSM b/a client (it backups the filesystems owned 
by node A of the shared volume group handed by HACMP) + TDP for Oracle  
+ TSM server

Node B
Resource group node B: TSM b/a client (it backups the filesystems owned 
by node B of the shared volume group handed by HACMP) + TDP for Oracle

In case of failure of the node A,
1) the node B continues its activities (this is Oracle instances + 
backup oracle/files of the node B) and 
2) the node B starts the activities of the node A (this is Oracle 
instances + backup oracle/files of the node A + TSM server)
