I am not so sure that is true....  Did you checkout the Innovation site.
They have had a lot of recent announcements.

The UPSTREAM Reservoir extends the power of UPSTREAM as an enterprise class
backup solution so organizations can now utilize UPSTREAM either in mixed
z/OS mainframe/open systems environments or entirely non-mainframe
environments.

Multi-Platform support includes agents for Windows NT/2000/XP/Server 2003,
Novell, OS/2, AIX, Sun Solaris, HP UX, Tru64, Intel Linux and zLINUX.

Unique UPSTREAM format provides support for any UPSTREAM Reservoir server to
read and write to tapes for UNIX, Windows, Novell, and Linux, or to even mix
platforms.

UPSTREAM is an intelligent, comprehensive solution for enterprise-wide
backup recovery solution for PC/LAN/UNIX/SAN Servers. The UPSTREAM solution
provides enhanced functionality, automation and reliability for open systems
storage, while offering low resource and system utilization. UPSTREAM's
flexible operations makes it a perfect fit for all types of organizations,
and provides a centralized solution for managing LAN/UNIX/SAN/NAS
distributed data.

Providing automated processing for lights out operations the UPSTREAM
Reservoir supports a wide variety of disk, tape and robotic devices. Backup
devices can be a single tape drive, tape library, silo, or disk arrays. The
UPSTREAM Reservoir Backup server can be Windows 2000/XP or Server 2003 and
can use any tape drive or library that supports Windows Removable Storage
Manager(RSM) such as 9840, Magstar, DLT, LTO, AIT, Ultrium. UPSTREAM
provides the ability to backup to disk or tape, and provides the option for
data to be backed up to disk, staged from disk and automatically moved to
tape.


It looks like you have a choice of z/OS or Windows 2000/XP or Server 2003 as
a destination for backups.  z/VM would be nice but no evidence of that.

Thanks, Sam

That is true, FDR Upstream does work, but it does not help those that don't
have z/OS laying around!
