    Thank you for submitting this enhancement request, and please accept my sincere apologies about the delay in responding to this request, for TSM backups of its internal DB2 we plan to deliver this function by in an upcoming release of TSM, I would also like to add that if you're using the 6.2.4 server you can accomplish this today by opening a PMR and discussing with support. for Flashcopy manager we currently plan to add this function in a future release of FCM.
