To do Lanfree to tape, the tapes must be SAN attached to all tsm clients
that will do Lanfree. The tape drives are defined to the tsm server and
a path is defined between the drives and the tsm server and between the
drives and each lanfree tsm client. Each lanfree tsm client machine
must have a tsm storage agent running on it

The tsm client starts a lanfree backup which connects to tsm storage
agent running on the same machine. The storage agent informs the tsm
server it need a tape mount, the tsm server mounts a tape on a free san
drive and tells the storage agent which drive the tape is mounted on.
The data is then written directly from the disk to the tape on the tsm
lanfree client machine using what ever path is normally used to the disk
and the san path to the tape.
