  2. Hi Daniel,

    I am glad you liked my post. If you look at Chapter 24 of the redbook I had just posted in the first post. You would find most of the thing you need to know about backing up VMware with TSM. If you are running TSM & VMware in one enviornment you might be interested in bookmarking http://www.tsmguru.com as we are planning to cover similar topics in details very soon. tsmguru.com has just started, but we will try to build it fast.
