Right on, Wanda! We also remind our clients that they can delete the unencrypted versions stored on the TSM server (using the "Utility -> Delete backupdata" function in the GUI client) and then run the backup; that way, they can rest assured that all their sensitive data on the TSM Server is encrypted. This usually leads to a larger discussion about just what is stored on the TSM server, and how, generally to mutual benefit.
