A suggestion:
Run a full archive of 3 clients each day for a month, so that you can
spread out the 75 full backups. Set your archive management class to
keep any given archive for a year. Send those archives to a (small) disk
pool which in turn is migrated to an archive tape pool. Once a month
check those archive tapes out and vault them. After a full 12 months in
the vault, that month's tapes can come to the TSM server as scratch
tapes.
