Overall Satisfaction with Tivoli Storage Manager
Saving information about each file, logical volume, or database that it backs up, archives, or migrates
- backs up
- archives
- recovery
- performance degradation in server database backups after upgrades
- Tivoli does well running file-level backups, but Exchange is clunky and restores are really hard. With no SharePoint agent, if you use SharePoint you will need another product like AvePoint DocAve. The web-based GUI console is MUCH improved over earlier versions, but you will still need to be a command-line guru to make Tivoli do everything, and local (node) config files still rule. This product was originally ported from Unix and retains may of its 'nix roots.
- BMC Helix ITSM (Remedy) and Veritas NetBackup
can manage backup and archive data across disk arrays, tape libraries or optical storage and can automatically move data
