No, the TSM backup is not the same as AIX mksysb.  It can not be
used to reload a crashed machine as mksysb, unless you also have
some 3rd party software like Bare Metal Restore from The Kernel Group,
and that requires some additional hardware (servers) etc.

Same for other Unix machines - doesn't duplicate HP-UX ignite tape
or SUN Jumpstart.
