It looks like the new version of sysback will be able to do this. 
At least thats what I read between the lines of the pre-informatie on the
web.
I would not waste my time with adsmpipe.

Subject: Mksysb directly into TSM 5.1


Hello,

any idea to send mksysb directly to tsm 5.1 (AIX)? I've heard adsmpipe is
not officialy supported, does anybody use named pipe to write their mksysb ?
If yes, how do you read back form the file ?

For now we use a NIM server and NFS, this is not optimum.

Thanks a lot,
