Yes, it can read from local storage - you'll be writing/reading it directly to/from tape, not sending it over the LAN to the TSM Server: that's the functionality that the SAN Storage Agent software on your client allows.

Can this client send local data (on local hard disk) to the tape library using LAN-free method? In other worlds, does the location of client data matter as long as client can access them locally or externally? Thanks. No virus found in this incoming message.
