Re: CBRM - Centera and my TSM server.
What is the name of the product? Andy Huebner -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of dataarchive Sent: Friday, May 01, 2009 2:14 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] CBRM - Centera and my TSM server. I am not sure if you are aware or not but the CBRM will not be develped past the 2.2 code so any issues you have, you may continue to have. We have been using a product that works great with Centera and does a C-clip back up and works flawlessly! The best thing is, it does a full back up the first time then only a delta back up the rest so back ups are fast and take little resources. Good luck with the CBRM, I would put down that dog!

This looks to be working now... Undocumented points of interest: The Storage pool that the Centera data is going to has to be large enough to hold all the raw data, plus the clips and the TOC.

Re: CBRM - Centera and my TSM server.
IS anyone using a script or some other method to create the daily .res file for a CBRM backup ? Or a possible other way to get just the changes in the last 24 hrs ?
