This has nothing to do with the OS. Yes you can have multiple libraries attached to one box (even Windows) and have multiple libraries defined in TSM. Yes you can back-up to multiple libraries. The management class is used to specify where back-up/archive and/or space management data is directed to. Even back-up storage pools will work to different libraries. It will be more complex to configure/troubleshoot and manage however, but this should be fun!
