I agree, this should work fine. I think the thing that previous posters were commenting on (saying that the db would become corrupted), that wasn't made clear in the original question, is that you want to make sure you shut down the primary TSM server prior to breaking the mirror. As long as you do that, I don't see why it shouldhn't work....
