Re: BACKUPSETS on TSM OS/390
Zoltan, The answer to your first query is yes you can create backupsets with a file device class and let sms manage them, including dfhsm migrate to tape if you want. Not sure what you are trying to achieve in your second question, and have not done this myself, but I believe 1) The client would definitely have to be same os as original backupset client 2) Restorability would depend on what local devices allowed for that particular client.

Re: BACKUPSETS on TSM OS/390
This is what I want to do: 1. Create the BACKUPSET on the OS/390 server to a flat file 2. FTP the file (binary) to another box/pc 3. Restore the files from the BACKUPSET to the pc the file was FTPed to. How close/similar do the filesystems have to be ? For instance, can I restore a Novell server backup files to another non-Novell box ?

Re: BACKUPSETS on TSM OS/390
Zoltan, As far as I am aware there is no local device client backupset restore for Novell, so you are stuck with standard backupset restore across network. I believe that backupset restore is operating system dependent ie. a novell client backupset can only be restored to a novell client.

Re: BACKUPSETS on TSM OS/390
The output can be a disk file using device class of FILE I am not sure what SMS manage?? can I say, FTP it to another platform, i.e. my PC ? so that anyone could restore from it, using the client ? The following is not addressing your question. but good to know. Beware that when restore local backupset from any devices , TSM client will check or verify node password , Anyone can steal your backupset and restore to his machine using TSM client. To prevent backupset restore to another machine, use TSM encryption to protect your files when backup to TSM server. Then generate the backupset . The file will still be encrypted in your backupset.
