Is this kind of information documented somewhere? For most OS's it may be
logical to assume support, but for like running an AIX 433 client on a 32 bit
AIX 5L box, it would be nice to know that jfs2 is supported (it is), and Linux
supports so many filesystems that a list of tsm supportted filesystems would
be like really nice. I was very supprised that my VFAT partitions are being
backupped using the Linux TSM client on my PC, but I had to try it to find
out. For planning an installation, these things are really nice to know
beforehand.

didn't even foresee that the century was going to end." -- Douglas Adams
