The folks are our shop who handle the big network shares use DFSR to
replicate data to DR servers. Our TSM backups take place on the DR
server with a standard BA client. Restores requires.

Fran,
HSM is different than a backup, and serves a different
purpose than convenience restores or Disaster Recovery. As I understand
it, its chief purpose is to economize on high cost data storage.
I had not heard of DFS before you asked about it. It
seems that it replicates filesystems on one server to other servers. What
I read implies that one use is for low bandwidth networks.
If that is the case, you should be able to use a standard
BA Client. Particularly in 6.2 with compression at the client, you could
even back up the distant Clients with little network impact if data change
is not heavy. But, do you really need to? What benefit is there to
backing up a distant clone of a local filesystem?
We backup DR servers at a remote location using TSM
servers at that DR Data Center because it would not do much good to have
the DR data backed up at the primary site. In our case there is an entire
data center to back up at the distant site, not one server.
But, if you have your local server backed up, you should
be able to replicate using DFS if a distant server fails or a filesystem
becomes corrupt. You are already paying for it.
