TSM with the addition of The Kernel Group's product
Bare Metal Restore can restore Sun Solaris from scratch.
Even a Solaris machine that uses Veritas Volume Manager.
Other supported platforms are AIX, HPUX and Windows NT.
The backups of the OS are incremental so you don't have
a huge OS image file and the backup is always up to date.
You can find more details at http://www.tkg.com.
