If you are at Informix release 10 or higher, it's built in. Like DB2. The
instructions on how to configure this for TSM is in the Informix Backup
Guide. Prior to that you need to license the TDP agent.

Subject: Informix database and TSM api

Has anyone used the API's to configure Informix database
backups via "ontape" to interface with TSM

I found an IBM article where this was done using Unix

I have a system with an Informix database that is currently
dumping to an internal server tape drive.

I need to dump this to disk so that TSM can manage it.
