Joe,
You can use TSM to backup Unidata. The following are the methods we have
used over the years. All involve the use of preschedule and postschedule
scripts.
1. Stop Unidata, backup the DB file system, re-start Unidata
2. Issue the dbpause command, backup the DB file system, issue dbresume
3. Mirror the DB file system, break the mirror and backup the static copy.
Option 3 is probably the best and is what we do. I would be happy to share
our experiences with you.
Thanks,

Hello Everyone,
I have a potential client who has around 20GB of Unidata DB on IBM RISC6000.
I'm not a UNIX person; all I know is that he is backing up using unix tar
command.
Does anybody know how we can backup this client.
On our side (server) we have TSM 5.1.7.2 on Windows 2000.
Thanks in advance,
