I looked at backupsets, however it looks like you can only create a backupset 
of "active" data?
The customer would like to have access to all data (active and inactive 
versions) outside of the TSM server.

Is this possible via a backupset?

Thanks again.

An EXPORT  is only suitable for importing to another TSM server.

Look at BACKUPSETs; a backupset, if written to CD/DVD, can be read by the
TSM client, without a TSM server.
