With our Netware boxes, we use the fullvm option with VCB to backup the entire virtual machine. You will have to install the client on the VM if you want file level backups.

The TSM client (5.5.1) in the VCB explicitly states that the BACKUP VM command will only backup a Window OS. Would one install the appropriate TSM client inside the VM and schedule the VM directly? Any other options?
