We also remind our clients that they can delete the unencrypted versions
stored on the TSM server (using the "Utility -> Delete backupdata" function
in the GUI client) and then run the backup; that way, they can rest assured
that all their sensitive data on the TSM Server is encrypted.  This usually
leads to a larger discussion about just what is stored on the TSM server,
and how, generally to mutual benefit.
