Hi all,

in my opinion, you not only need to ask Windows , "UX" and mainframe 
admins for backup rules. This is only for system data.
Policies should be defined by application owners, too. They have to take 
care about data availibility following rules defined by i.g. legacy.
Do not grant authority to your TSM server to all of them ;-)

regards
Ullrich

Hi,
There are different kinds of servers and their corresponding teams in a
company: Windows-based, Linux-based, AIX and mainframe. Who should 
normally
design/dictate backup policies for a central TSM?
