Since the DB2 API only act as a media manager for DB2, the B/A client wont be able to read what has actually been backed up.
So the answer to your question is no, the B/A client cant restore data that has been backed up using DB2 (through the TSM API). What you can do to restore the data is a) Install a DB2 server and then restore the data using that instance b) Start writing your own software to retrieve the stored objects on the TSM server through the TSM API. Out of the alternatives, I'd say A is alot easier.

Have you tried running up a BA client to see what is actually there?
