IBM
Tivoli Storage Manager Extended Edition
protects data from hardware failures, errors,
and unforeseen disasters by storing backup
and archive copies on offline and offsite
storage. Scaling to protect thousands of
computers running more than a dozen operating
systems, ranging from laptops to mainframes
and connected together via the internet,
WANs, LANs or SANs, Storage Manager Extended
Edition's centralized Web-based management,
intelligent-data-move and store techniques
and comprehensive policy-based automation
all work together to minimize administration
costs and the impact to both computers and
networks.
Optional software
modules allow business-critical applications
that must run 24x365 to utilize Storage
Manager's centralized data protection with
no interruption to their service. Optional
software extensions also allow SAN-connected
computers to use the SAN for data protection
data movements, and provide Hierarchical
Storage Management to automatically move
unused data files from online disk storage
to offline tape storage. Storage Manager
Extended Edition expands on the data backup
and restore, and managed data archive and
retrieve capabilities of the base Storage
Manager by adding, disaster planning capability,
NDMP control for NAS filers and support
for large tape libraries.
Disaster
Preparation and Recovery
Local copies of data will not protect
against a local disaster. IBM Tivoli Storage
Manager Extended Edition facilitates the
tracking of the additional copies of your
active data that Tivoli Storage Manager
creates for safekeeping at an off site location.
IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Extended Edition
also prepares and keeps up to date a text
file with detailed recovery steps and automated
computer-scripts--the "recovery plan". Should
a disaster strike and destroy your storage
and computers, this plan and the off site
data copies will get your business back
up and running quickly.
