Being that the results of a Q CONTENT command comes from the TSM
database, there is no way to "dump" the portion of the database that is
accessed when you use the Q CONTENT command.

The CONTENT command stresses the TSM server because it pulls a large
percentage of the database's content to display results. If you want to
access the TSM database without using TSM itself, try connecting to the
database via ODBC and your favorite database frontend (mySQL, Access,
whatever).
