Then, as DB has noted, you're basically SOL.....sorry.

We're running TSM on z/OS. With the level of utilization, though, it's
getting to be expensive. We were looking to cut costs by moving the
server to engines with flat pricing.

Subject: Re: Linux on z and VTS == compatible at all?
What is the possibility of reliably running TSM server on Linux with
the
backups going to our brand spanking new clustered TS7700?
I couldn't find any literature supporting it.
If it's channel-attached, then the probability is exactly
zero. TSM on Linux doesn't do channel-attached tape. If you
had TSM on z/OS -- or even the old TSM on VM server -- you
could drive it that way using DFSMS/VM RMM and use
server-to-server migration to get the TSM servers to work together.
I don't know of anyone using it via FCP attached tape. The
generic SCSI changer commands don't seem to work very
reliably; the only SCSI VTS I have access to seems to hang
reliably when presented with SCSI changer commands. This
makes the PTBs unhappy, so I've stopped trying.
