Greetings, all.
I've gotten a request to update my opinions on ways that TSM can help
the mainframe do backups. What I'm recalling from previous
discussions we've had here is that the MVS filesystem structure, and
the files theron, are sufficiently different from the heirarchical
structures of

Hi Allen,
What you recall is correct.
MVS doesn't understand open file systems, and a non-MVS OS doesn't
understand MVS filesystems.
You can't use TSM to do your mainframe backups in any way (except for
the O/E component of MVS, which is a unix-style filesystem.
If you use mainframe software

Got TSM 4.2 Server running on AIX 4.3.3 on an RS6000 (IBM H80).
Can you backup

I believe the only thing that TSM can backup on a mainframe is the USS
client - Unix System Services. This includes both the file system data
as well as the Lotus Domino databases.

Can you backup a mainframe to an AIX TSM Server?

Yes, But the only thing, (in our environment), that makes sense to backup
from the mainframe using TSM is Unix System Services HFS.
