Hi
1. Yes, you can share a 3584-L32 library
between one or more iSeries servers and a pSeries server, but it will require
partitioning.
2. Yes, BRMS is a good way of going
if you want to use dynamic sharing between the drives. This however will
require the TSM api, so that BRMS server acts as a TSM client. This is
a good way to go if you dont have high performance expectations, as the
BRMS solution has some mean performance issues.
We have a customer that was choosing
between running BRMS+TSM api or partitioning the library. They went with
the partitioning scenario, as this gave alot better performance and could
offer the advantages of central, consolidated tape storage.
The down-side is that you dont manage
all tape activity through the TSM server. However, all tape and job activity
isnt managed through TSM despite using BRMS with TSM. You still have to
monitor the individual iSeries servers.

We back up our AS400 with BRMS and TSM. Check this out. It works fine for
us.

Good Luck.

Is it possible to share a 3584 Library (FC-LTO2) between a TSM
server(5.1.9.3) on AIX433 and a AS400. Do you need to do
partitioning(and loose an entire drive to the AS400) or can you just
dynamicly share a drive between the as400 and tsm?
Can the AS400 use the drive as if it was locally attached so it can use
its own backup mechanism?
How do you backup your as400?
