Hi Mike ,

Look at this redbook sg24-6247-00 backing Up DB2 using Tivoli Storage Manager







Can anyone point me in the right direction with regards to using DB2's  API
(UDB) to backup directly to tape.  I have no experience with DB2 so I would
be grateful if someone to give me a helping hand.  The application team
want to be able to back up to our LTO 3584 directly rather than going via a
storage pool, which I have set it up to do.  Does anyone know what changes
I have to make or is there a Redbook out there which will give me the
answer.  Also they have asked whether TSM can delete a file once it has
been successfully backed up.  I know Arcserve can but can TSM?

Thanks as always,

Mike
