Hi Mark
Personally I'm aware of the HSM features.
However I was specifically referring to TSM Backup restore. I was told
the new GUI for unprivileged users looks identical to what root would
see, but unprivileged users would only be able to see material for
which they have read permissions, and restore only to paths they have
write permissions. The GUI is supposed to be a difference platform
then the java/WebSphere like we have seen in the past to manage TSM.
I'm looking forward to it as well.

Quoting Marc A Kaplan <[email protected]>:
IBM HSM products have always supported unprivileged, user triggered recall
of any file. I am not familiar with any particular GUI, but from the CLI,
it's easy enough:
dd if=/pathtothefileyouwantrecalled of=/dev/null bs=1M count=2 & #
pulling the first few blocks will trigger a complete recall if the file
happens to be on HSM
We also had IBM HSM for mainframe MVS, years and years ago, which is now
called DFHSM for z/OS. (I remember using this from TSO...)
If the file has been migrated to a tape archive, accessing the file will
trigger a tape mount which can take a while, depending on how fast your
tape mounting (robot?), operates and what other requests may be queued
ahead of yours....!
