Tivoli Storage Manager is an enterprise-level backup solution from IBM, much like Veritas Netbackup. It uses a client-server schema -- a server manages the tape library, disk storage, etc., and the client contacts the server to specify which files are to be backed up whenever its schedule rolls around. The client, itself, runs two processes dsmsched (the process response for contacting the server initially) and dsmc (the client daemon). The dsmc process runs a web server on the client, where one may specify the files to be backed up and to restore files that have been backed up previously -- it's quite nice. The only downsides of TSM is that its (1) not free (2) requires a server and (3) not available for Solaris/x86. -- Derek E.
