backup sets

[Wholey, Joseph (TGA\\MLOL)]

environment:    s/390 v2.10
                TSM server v 4.1.3
                TSM client NT4.0


Scenario:  notified of large scale restore in advance.  Usually takes numerous hours.

Would it make sense to create a backupset, archive it to tape and then retrieve it?  
Now, I don't incur the time associated with multiple tapemounts.
