Andy Raibeck once put out an sql manual which was specific to the TSM
database.  I've lost my copy along the way so if you still have a link Andy
that would be nice!

But, whilst the TSM database is *not* DB2, it looks as if the SQL interface
was modelled on DB2 sql. Bear in mind that you only have a select statement
and that many of the more complicated subselection constructs are not
supported, neither is UNION.

but go to the DB2 infocenter
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v8/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm
.
db2.udb.doc/core/c0008880.htm

then under Reference, SQL you will find explanations of functions and
queries that may prove useful. I most recently used this when I wanted to
find the function that returns the day-of-month protion of a timestamp
because I wanted to run something different in my housekeeping script on
the
9th of every month.  The function is DAY.
