Brent,
As much as I love IBM and the people who work for IBM ;-)
The CA-VM:Manager Suite of products are a complete package:
VM:Secure is a Security and Directory product in one.
VM:Backup, VM:Backup-HiDRo, and VM:Archive for cms and dasd backup.
there are other products but these are the most widely used, by most VM
shops.
good luck
