+Tivoli Storage Manager (or TSM) is IBM's enterprise backup solution, and provides both a [[technote:commandline|Command Line]] interface program that can be used to query the information required for synchronization and ODBC driver that allows you to directly query data from the TSM database.
 TSM is designed around several database tables that must be queried to get a complete list of tapes.

 These tables are:
    * **The DRM Table**. This table lists all tapes are considered critical for recovery purposes.
-   * **The Volume Table**. This table lists all tapes that contain active data for a given TSM system. Any Volume that become scratch and is no longer managed by the DRM subsystem will be dropped from this table.

Although these Volumes may now be in an ATL and visible by querying the Library Master Server, they may also be elsewhere, including a scratch rack and not appear in any TSM table. To identify any scratch tapes that may have evaded being recalled from off-site, it is good practice to set the SCRATCH field during each synchronization and to periodically run the [[cli:tmss10movescratch|TMSS10MoveScratch]] command</note>
