Who tracks the data saved by the BRMS Application Client to TSM – BRMS or the TSM server?
BRMS uses the TSM servers as if these are virtual tape devices. BRMS tracks the objects saved at TSM servers in the same manner it tracks objects saved to local media. The BRMS media information for objects saved at TSM servers contains *ADSM for the volume serial identifier, and 0 (zero) for the file sequence number. The media information detail identifies the device (TSM server) where the objects were saved, as well as the filespace, high-level and low-level names, and the management class.
