Well, mainframe does not support Fiber Channel and has its own FICON and
ESCON protocols for Library and Storage connectivity. How about using SAN
directors? Can a Unix client send backup data directly to a
mainframe-attached tape library using protocol conversion devices? (
LAN-free backup is
Thanks Francisco,
Can TSM server for z/OS backup open system's data? If yes, does it support
TDP for Oracle (oracle is on Unix), TDP for MS SQL and LAN-free data
movement?

Yes it does, TSM on z/OS will backup all of these. I am not sure about
LAN-free data movement. z/OS will only support ESCON or FICON attach
tape drives and not Fibre channel tape drives. 3590 and
3592/TS1120/TS1130 requires tape controllers. LTO of any flavor are not
supported by z/OS.

Hi,
Unfortunately, you can save only DB2 in Mainframe using DB2 tools it is not
possible to send to TSM under distributed environment.

Hi,
I wonder if DB2 data on mainframe can be backed up and sent to TSM in open
systems (here AIX) or not. Currently I consider mainframe and non-mainframe
systems as separate islands in TSM scenario. The goal is to consolidate
virtually all backups into one TSM server. Is that possible?
