ASM2 is a different product and is called CA-ASM2 Backup and Restore. Both are under the Brightstor product line, but I think CA dropped the "Brightstor" from the name not too long ago. CA acquired ASM2 so long ago that I forgot where they got it from - but I don't think CA was the original developer.
