We used to do the same thing, before moving the AS400 backups to BRMS/TSM.
Just make sure you use different private and scratch catagories.

Re: Need evidence of successful BRMS/TSM sharing 3494
When you use a 3494 you already *have* a library manager.
Just allocate different categories for AS400 and TSM.
I had a 3 bay 3494 with two 3590E drives SCSI connected to an AS400 and 4
drives connected to a P690 running TSM.
Worked fine. Just had to do a little operator training to sort out the
two sets of check-in/check out processes.

Currently, BRMS has a 3494 and TSM has its own (in different locations).
We are bringing the AS/400s into this data centre. The AS/400 people WILL
NOT share the library unless we get "proof" that it can be done
successfully. (Sharing will take less floor space and give us high
availability for the same cost.)
Note, we are probably not interested in a TSM agent for BRMS. We still
want to keep these two beasts off each other throats. So, we are simply
looking for other datacentres that have BRMS and TSM sharing a PARTITIONED
3494.
If TSM can act as a library manager for BRMS (i.e. easily share drives)
that would be of interest also.
If you can help, I'd appreciate it; and if you don't mind, the AS/400
people would probably like to converse with you later.
Thanks in advance.
