Subject: Re: direct attached disk (DAS) at a tape library?

I was under the impression that the TSM database MUST be backed up to
tape.  Is this true?

Also, does anyone know of tape emulator software only? (without having
to purchase a new disk array with that feature)  We are running TSM
5.1.5 on Red Hat Linux 2.4.19.
