RE: Stupid Question

We also were using ARCServe & dumped it after struggling through "customer
service".  We were lead to a product called UltraBac that is much simpler to
use.  Works great & customer service is a pleasure to work with - a live
being answers the phone.

Thanks - Dennis.

As I stated in my first email, I am looking at BRMS/400 for Lotus Notes
backups, so thanks for telling me not to use TSM on the 400 side.
However, for a small(ish) NT farm, would TSM be 'overkill'?  We are using
a product called Arcserve and we're not enjoying the experience...

ADSM (ADSTAR Distributed Storage Manager) which is now know as TSM (Tivoli
Storage Manager)

In short,  it is a client/server based backup system. You can backup other
machines onto your 400.

I would suggest to stay away from it in the 400 world.  It works much
better in the RS/6000 and PC enviroment, which we use for a large number
of servers.

We use native BRMS for all of our 400 backups, and really like it. But I
would suggest takeing the class at Rochester before useing it.

If you wan't more info on TSM or BRMS, l would be happy to help.

We are looking at getting BRMS/400 on one of our AS/400's so that we can
back up Lotus Domino without taking the service down.  In the course of
looking at BRMS, I keep bumping in to a product called ADSTAR and one
called ADSM.  What are these products, and under what circumstances would
I need them?
