I want to find out if there is a way to read the tapes created by ADSM/TSM
without relying on any ADSM/TSM utilities or binaries to recover the data.
Is the tape format used by ADSM/TSM to write data on tape during backup well
known or published?
If I can find a way to read the tapes by just knowing the tape format then I
can write a utility which can be included in a disaster recovery plan as a
standby option.

Thanks
