Hi Tim We use Informix 7.3 IDS for reasons not needed here. I use TDP for Informix on AIX 5.3 and it works like a charm. My logs and DB's go to tape. We use onbar instead of on tape as the API for the TDP client is better geared for this.
If you want any more information you are welcome to mail me directly.

Like DB2. The instructions on how to configure this for TSM is in the Informix Backup Guide. Prior to that you need to license the TDP agent. Bill Boyer "The ride is the objective.

I need to dump this to disk so that TSM can manage it.
