There's a nice redbook "IBM Tivoli Storage Manager: Bare Machine Recovery
for AIX with SYSBACK". Go to http://www.rebooks.ibm.com and search on
"sysback". Right now it's just a redpiece, but dated 10/30/03.

Hi there,
we are evaluating the use of Sysback to do Bare Metal Restore of our AIX
boxes.

I have two questions for you:
1) will Sysback work with an S/390 TSM Server?
2) do I need to use NIM or may I start recovery operations
booting from a CD, for example?

Your help will be very appreciated
TIA
