Subject: Network backups

Hi all

I have been asked about doing backups over a network connection from an
AS/400 to another machine; can be an AS/400, but we also have a pSeries
running TSM on the network as another option. The AS/400's will be running
V5R2. Bandwidth should not be a problem as we are talking fibre and gigabit
ethernet (or so I'm told).

I keep hearing that BRMS can do this, but can never locate anything that
tells me how; all I can find indicates that BRMS network feature allows
machines in a BRMS network to share policies, tape pools and the like. I
figure that BRMS involvement in this scenario is most likely as a client to
a TSM server.

Any and all opinions welcomed plus any experiences and advice :)

Regards
Evan Harris
