Hi Jerry
so no ALT-D IPL is possible using CommVault ?
Are you using their VTL offering or the older fiel system agent thing they
had (I'm told there are some distinct differences).
I admit I am skeptical, but I am trying to keep an open mind.

The Commvault software knows almost nothing about the IBM I db2 file
system.
It treats the IBM I as though it is a *IX based system.
Very few Commvault techs have ever heard of an IBM I so getting real
help is a challenge.
We have it running at one site and it does work. Minor restores have
been relatively easy.
Is is not a great DR solution. There is nothing to boot from.

Hi guysi.
I am working with some people that are exploring VTL options for the IBM
There are a couple of strong options on the table (FalconStore and--
Cybernetics) but there are a few others floating around that people are
looking at. I've used DSI and EMC Data Domain in the past.
One that has come up is CommVault.but that is a completely
unknown quantity to me in the i space and the documentation is lacking in
some detail.
Has anyone else done any work with CommVault or used it in anger ?
The lines for me are that if it does not support BRMS, native IBM i save
commands and ALT-D IPL it doesn't get out of the box.
Anyone got any thoughts or comments ? Feel free to go into bat for your
favourite VTL solution even if you can't comment on CommVault!
