Run a selective if you like, but there is no real need to.  Then run a
generate backupset on the node.  This will put all of the active data on to
a tape.

Print out the detail of the backupset (q backupset) and send it with the
tape to the customer.

Hi all,

How can I perform a full backup or an archive on a client that is going to
be deactivated and send the data directly to tape. There is an IBM 3583 L18
LTO2 connected to the TSM Server, with 3 drives and 18 slots.

How can I tell TSM to use a particular tape, a scratch one that will be
sent to the customer.

Any help is appreciated.

Mario
