My question was conserning 2 things.


If you use Encryption. Cant people who get a hold of the TSM Database and
the Copy Storage Pools, restore the data, whether the data was back up with
Encrytpion or not?

If you make a bakup set from the data back up. is ther Encryption on that
data? if not is ther posible to make the backup sets more secure?


I have read about Encryption, witch sais that the data is Encrypted before
the data is sent on the TSM Server. i haven´t read anything about Encrytpion
on the acctual TSM server data, whether the data uses encryption there or
not. It does not matter if the data is Encrypted on the way to the TSM, it
only matters if i can secure the data offsite? And i havent read anything
about that in TSM only about Encryption in TSM for clients.
