Hi
I was in contact with Veritas only a few weeks ago, and I can insure you that they are
still developing the product (and supporting it) for TSM. We've got two large
customers running approx. 70 BMR clients, and I don't think Veritas is interested in
making this customers unhappy. I also know that Tivoli has sold a large number of BMR
licenses, so the product is wide spread.
However, as this is a forum for TSM, a lot of people is worried, as Veritas is the
formost competitor to Tivoli.
As I see it, Veritas has nothing to gain by removing support for TSM in BMR. As it is
now, Veritas can sell products to customers that they normally don't sell anything to,
customers that belong to Veritas formost competitor.
Best Regards
Daniel Sparrman

Good luck! Ever since Veritas bought The Kernel Group development for
the product integration with TSM died, it's now being used with their
offering.
Myself and many others in the San Francisco bay area are concerned with
IBM's marketing strategy in some key points such as bare-metal restore
capabilities.

Subject: Bare Metal Restore for TSM
Hi!
Does anybody know BMR for TSM? I'm trying seeking related documents for
it and find none.
And all I wanna know are supporting platform/vesrion, install
procedure, and administrative notes.
If you have the information about it, please tell me.
Thanks.
