Consider also taking the TSM Level 2 course. Tivoli offers this course and we offer this course. Check our website for details. Our class is held bi-monthly. That said, the next course will probably be offered in January.
Our Level 2 class is being taught in the Netherlands next week. If you are interested in attending contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] I believe there may still be room in the class. Both courses, ours and Tivoli's have the same basis. We wrote the 3.7 Advanced class for IBM a couple of years ago. The goal of that course was and is to prepare attendees for the certification test. Another large aspect of the test is TSM design and planning. That is covered in great detail in the course and not covered particularly well anyplace else. The intent of the certification test is to ensure that folks that pass have a very broadbased knowledge of the product. It was designed to make it very difficult to pass by simply reading books and taking courses but rather to require about a year of daily TSM administration. In that way your are likely to see most every scenario possible with respect to TSM. Kelly J. Lipp Storage Solutions Specialists, Inc.

When i took my MCSE i had 30-40 questions and i had 90 minutes for it. So what stands up in my mind is how fast this test is. Learn everything there is to know about Server to Server, and Include Exclude lists, I got alot of questions regarding it. Bee sure to know everything about the options you can put in the dsmserv.opt and dsm.opt (dsm.sys UNIX). Read the "Getting Started with Tivoli Storage Manager Implementation Guide" and know it well. You don4t need to read the "Tivoli Storage Management Reporting" book, they won4t ask mutch about the reporting in TSM. only simple questions witch can be learnd form the other books. If you know this you should be able to pass.
