About
TSMPIPE is a Tivoli Storage Manager client, that enables you to take data from STDIN and store that in TSM as a BACKUP or ARCHIVE object.
In its simplest form, you can
cat myfile.ext | tsmpipe -c [MORE OPTIONS]
Or, where an application supports "dumping" to STDOUT, you can pipe that dump into TSMPIPE.
myappdump | tsmpipe -c [OPTIONS]
Getting data back is the reverse
tsmpipe -x [MORE OPTIONS] > myfile
Or, back to your application
tsmpipe -x [MORE OPTIONS] | myapp
For help, use tsmpipe -h To test that you can connect to TSM, use tsmpipe -i
