Hi All,

We have a potential AS/400 client.
We are running TSM server on Win2000 5.1.8.0
I'm not as/400 guru; to be more precise I don't know anything about as/400.
I downloaded Redbook "Practical Guide to Implementing TSM on AS400 sg245472" and try 
to get familiar with as/400.
I know that we have to use tsm api for as/400 and that it works together with 
BRMS/400. Customer will help us to install it.

Question that he asked me: " Is it possible to have all data backed up to TSM or we 
still have to use our tape backup".

This Redbook refers to as/400 v4r3; and it says Operating system, system libraries, 
security objects, IBM supplied libraries and licensed programs  CAN NOT be backed up 
to TSM; they can only be saved to local device (tape). So, we cannot fully recover 
as/400 system using only TSM.

Does anybody knows if this is true, or something changed in newer versions.
