Re: BMR product

2001-12-29 Thread Ray Schafer

Ron,

The three BMR Servers required are best described as "logical
components".  All three (Main, File, and Boot Server) can be co-located
on one machine - this machine can also be the TSM server.   The server
components have to run on a UNIX machine - either AIX, Solaris, or HP
UX.  If the components are separated, only the Main server must also run
a TSM (or ADSM) client.

BMR clients - machines to be protected - must have both TSM BA Client
(ADSM version 3.1.0.20 or higher or TSM version 3.7, 4.1, or 4.2) and
BMR Client.

Hope that helps...

Depending on the target environment, it is possible to consolidate these
three server components on to one machine.

The File server always has to be Unix/Aix I believe.

BMR is a separate 3rd party product that The Kernel Group developed in
conjunction with IBM/Tivoli.  BMR is a great product that provides the
ability to perform bare-metal restores of systems.  I do not think there
is a required level of TSM 4.2 that would need to be applied in order to
run BMR.  But on the same lines, I would recommend running TSM 4.2.1.x
with "x" being a patch level between 1 and 7.

I was looking thru the BMR (Bare Metal Restore) documents on the
Kernal Groups web site.  Since the BMR architecture (three of its
own servers) seems to be
external to the TSM server, is there something that makes TSM
4.2 a required level to use BMR?

2001-12-27 Thread cc52

I was looking thru the BMR (Bare Metal Restore) documents on the
Kernal Groups web site.  Since the BMR architecture (three of its
own servers) seems to be
external to the TSM server, is there something that makes TSM
4.2 a required level to use BMR?
