I am new to TSM (past 6 months). I went to the basic and advanced TSM
classes and found them both very useful. If it wasn't for the classes there
are certain things I would have struggled with for too long. The Redbooks
and this newsgroup are also very helpful.
I feel TSM is extremely powerful and flexible providing many options to a
user. I see these options as strengths, not weaknesses. I need to have the
knowledge to make the best choices for my installation to be successful. So
far, so good.
I'm all for it!

Subject: Would you buy TSM again.
We are reconsidering our backup software.
We are a pretty large unix shop (5 Terrabytes to backup nightly) and are
using some HP Omniback and a lot of Veritas Netbackup. Mostly HP-UX.
We have a large Lotus Notes Rel 5 implementation on AIX (600 gig on its way
to 1.2 Terrabytes).
We are studying robot technology and SAN's.
Tivoli is selling and Netbackup is trying to stay in the shop.
How good do you rate TSM on a scale of 1 to 10. (10 being best).
Would you definately buy it again, or would you shop around.
My gut feeling is that everybody has some complaints with their backup
solution.
