Yes, been there, done that. My boss is looking to consolidate all our servers on one or two platforms, i.e. all Sun and VMware virtual servers, for a less expensive disaster recovery plan. We currently run our TSM server on a pSeries LPAR.

One reason you won't find much about this, is that TSM makes it very easy to run more than one TSM server instance on a single OS image. This will be inherently more efficient than virtualization via VMware, Sun LDOM, IBM z/VM, or IBM pSeries LPAR. Instructions are in the TSM Installation Guide and Administrators Guide.
