I have some questions about this article, maybe they are strange, but anyway: What is this: - try to push customers to use TSM 6? - try to implement new pricing policy? - totally new product instead of Tivoli Storage Manager (from licensing point of view)? - something else? Grigori G.

No, it is still there - your version of the link is missing the .PDF extension of David's original. Interesting how, as well as formalising this capacity licensing arrangement, IBM has also gone to lengths to include the PVU information gathering mechanism into TSM 6.3 - perhaps acknowledging

In the US, encryption also covers a regulatory issue. Many states now have laws that spell out the responsibilities of sites to protect personally identifiable information (information about persons including their financial info, medical info, etc.) The short version is that if a tape goes
