I plan on re-attempting the BRMS recovery.
A lot has changed and improved since 2012.

I asked a similar question in the last 30 days for a very similar situation, though we don't have multiple tape drives. I received differing responses from people who were waaaay more qualified than me. One said that BRMS will never be able to duplicate the portion of a manual save 21 where *NONSYS libraries are saved, while the other believed it was possible to create a policy that did so.

It was fairly evident that the problem with a BRMS *SYSSAV backup isn't _what_ it saves, but how it labels the various objects backed up. Most migration outlines assume that you have labels on the tape that match a manual 21 save, and without them a user is required to have more in depth knowledge of how to restore to the new system.

I haven't had a chance to validate either viewpoint (you can or cannot create an exact copy of a manual 21 save in BRMS).

You may want to review the mailing list to find that conversation.
