Depends on the Unix environment. Some of the Unix TSM clients have HSM
capabilities (ie AIX, Solaris, HPUX) if you are running a HSM-capable
filesystem like AFS.  The Linux/390 TSM client has the hooks for it, but
given TSM's abominable attitude, I don't think anyone's bothered to port the
HSM support yet.

HSM is available for AFS on Linux/390.  Contact me offline for details.
