Overview
Tivoli Software Pillars
Storage
◦ Tivoli Storage Manager
◦ No dependencies on any of the other Tivoli products
◦ Integration points with the other Tivoli products
Security

◦ Performance, Availability,Configuration and Operations
TSM-Features..
Complete Storage Management
◦ backup / restore
◦ archive / retrieve
◦ disaster recovery
◦ space management (hsm)
◦ database and application protection
◦ bare machine recovery
◦ data retention
Scaleable from PC servers through UNIX and mid-range servers
to OS/390 mainframe servers
Heterogeneous platform coverage for 13 different operating
environments

Records Retention
TSM-Progressive backup
•ONLY new or changed files backed up
•NO redundant backups
•Restores don’t require the same file to be restored multiple times
•NO wasteful weekly full backups and their dependent
incremental/differential
•Data tracked at file level
•Accurate restores

NDMP Control
•Uses Network Data Management
(TCP/IP)
Protocol (NDMP) to perform high-
performance, scalable backups and of
restores NAS Device
Data transfer
(Data Mover)
(SCSI/FC)
•TSM also supports NFS/CIFS backup of
NAS devices Control
Data Flow
Path
TSM Server
Disadvantages:
Administration of multiple backup servers
Careful scheduling to avoid drive contention
Server- Free backup
Also called ‘3rd party copy’ or SCSI Extended Copy (XCOPY)
LAN
Client (application host) discovers low-level TSM Client and
TSM Server
mapping for data, and passes to third party Storage Agent
data mover LogDB
Advantages: Contr
ol
Requires no CP cycles on client for backup I/O P
Can work well for non-file objects (eg. volumes) ath
Disadvantages:
XCOPY specification still evolving
Not transparent to application/database
Difficult file-to-block mapping
Limited platform, device and database support
Unproven performance/reliability
Volume level backup / restores
Lan free backup
Lan-free backup has client storage agent
send data directly to tape or disk
LAN
TSM Client and TSM Server
Advantages: Storage Agent Disk
•Client data can be local or SAN-attached Log DB
Tape
•Transparent to application/database
•Takes backup traffic off the LAN
•Reduces CP cycles on backup server (no I/O)
•Faster speed (usually) SAN
•Only one backup server needs administration

Disadvantages: Flow

ath
•Still requires CP cycles on client for backup
I/O
•Careful scheduling to avoid tape drive
contention (or exploit disk pooling with some
solutions)

Fire wall support
Advanced backup, recovery & web client
support through firewalls
•API-based solution enables TSM server to
communicate directly with the target clients that
are to be protected
firewall
Requires the assignment of only two
firewall ports
Irrespective of the # of target servers and
clients that are to be protected
First port allows TSM server & clients TCP/IP
communication
Second port enables scheduling between TSM TSM Server
server & clients
Optional third port enable the administrative
Web interface
