Hi TIM,

Informix Database backup via TSM is using "onbar". IMHO "ontape" is used
for backup not managed by TSM. Using "onbar" you won't need to dump the
Informix Database to file but TSM backup the database online / "on the
fly". And using TSM u can manage it where you like to backup: disk or tape.
Please refer to IBM Tivoli documentation for complete reference which you
can get through ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/

BR,

Martin Panggabean
