Benefits

Tivoli Storage Manager Extended Edition does more than just backup client data.
It has numerous products that integrate directly with the centralized server.
These products allow you to back up your application databases, help you
generate a plan for recovering from a disaster, and generate in-depth reports to
help you analyze and forecast your backup procedures.
On the iSeries server, Tivoli Storage Manager Extended Edition can be optionally
combined with IBM Backup Recovery and Media Services (BRMS) (5722-BR1)
to provide a single centralized backup and recovery solution to your entire
storage server environment.
You can find additional information about IBM Tivoli Storage Manager V5.2 or
V5.1.5 running under OS/400 PASE in Integrating Backup Recovery and Media
Services and IBM Tivoli Storage Manager on the IBM Eserver iSeries Server,
SG24-7031.
IBM Backup Recovery and Media Services for iSeries
(5722-BR1)
IBM Backup Recovery and Media Services is the IBM strategic solution for
planning and managing the backup of your iSeries server. It provides all of the
functions that most iSeries users need to implement a fully automated, single
system, backup, recovery, and media management strategy.
BRMS facilitates centralized management of media by maintaining a consistent
view of removable tape media, its contents, location, and availability across
multiple iSeries servers or OS/400 partitions referred to as
This common media scratch pool contains shared tape volumes, which are
eligible for use by any participating networked system. When a networked
system uses one of the shared volumes, that usage is broadcast to all networked
systems so that each system has a current view of the active media and the
available expired media.
