Unfortunately, this turns the "Can I get it done in time without running out of scratch?" problem into "Can I get it done in more time, across a constrained network, without running out of disk storage pool?".
Not always a win. Also, 5.4 solved the "How do I make an offsite copy of NDMP data?" problem, even if you are going NDMP direct to tape.

This allows you (I believe) to store the NDMP data in normal TSM storage pools, rather than sending directly to a NAS-attached tape library.
