IBM
Tivoli Storage Manager for Hardware improves
the data protection of your business-critical
databases and ERP applications that require
24x365 availability. This software module
helps IBM Tivoli Storage Manager and its
other data protection modules to perform
high-efficiency data backups and archives
of your most business-critical applications
while eliminating nearly all performance
impact on database or ERP servers. This
elimination of server performance impact
is accomplished by coupling the FlashCopy®
function of IBM Enterprise Storage Server
(ESS - "Shark") with Storage Manager and
its database protection capabilities for
DB2, Oracle and SAP R/3 databases.
The Tivoli
Storage Manager for Hardware software module
works with and requires both Tivoli Storage
Manager or Tivoli Storage Manager Enterprise
Edition and either of the other data protection
modules--IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for
Databases or IBM Tivoli Storage Manager
for ERP--to provide a "near zero-impact"
data backup and archive process.
