Hi Brown Yes TSM Can do this
You can create 2 Policy Domain´s 1 for your DomainA and the second one for DomainB. Then you can create 2 seprete administrators who can only manage clients within there domains. the only user who has the rights to manage both domains is the System admin. and if you keep his id and password secure you are safe.

My TSM Servers(2) are RS/6000's running TSM 4.1.4.1, and AIX 4.3.3. Currently, I have only been backing up clients within domainA. I have been posed with the question, can I backup clients within domainB and provide security for the data being backed. For instance, can I make is so that the data being backed up in domainB can only be restored to a computer within domainB. My understanding is that the answer is no, there is no authentication to a domain other than to the associated TSM server. The questions I have: Is there a way with TSM to provide the security they are asking with my current servers? If a seperate Windows server running TSM were created, can I provide the security they are asking me for? All feedback is appreciated, Bud Brown Information Services Systems Administrator 303-436-5986
