The way TSM does this is in the TSM 5.4 and 5.5 Technical Guide under the section "10.1.2 Filer-to-server"
They use the NDMPv2 3-way spec to perform this task, which is why they are calling it "3-way". The difference is that the library manager is acting as the destination data mover. It doesn't look like TSM performs a "3-way" backup where the data can be routed through a filer destination.
