IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager for Advanced Copy Services helps protect mission-critical data that requires 24x7 availability.
It offers ready-to-use, product-based solutions designed to implement high-efficiency backup and restore processes and helps eliminate backup-related performance issues.
- Provides a "near zero-impact" data backup and "near instant" recovery solution and helps eliminate backup-related performance impact on the production database or ERP servers
- Integrates snapshot capabilities with Tivoli Storage Manager and its data protection components for IBM DB2® UDB, Oracle, and mySAP. SAP Certified.
- Couples the hardware- and software-based FlashCopy® functions of IBM Storage Subsystems (ESS, DS8000, DS6000 and SVC) with Tivoli Storage Manager
- A module in the IBM TotalStorage® Open Software Family, it was formerly known as Tivoli Storage Manager for Hardware
- Works with and requires either Tivoli Storage Manager or Tivoli Storage Manager Extended Edition and the corresponding data protection module--IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Databases or IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP
- New in Version 6: Support for FlashCopy restore onto a Peer to Peer Remote Copy (PPRC) source volume. PPRC is a continuous disk-based mirroring function typically used for environments requiring high availability disaster recovery
- New in Version 6: Enhanced snapshot support for SAP environments. Through integration with the Backint interface, integration of Tivoli Storage Manager snapshot functionality into conventional backup procedures in SAP is simplified
- New in Version 6: Enhanced Oracle application snapshot support when used in conjunction with: IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller (SVC); IBM System Storage DS6000; IBM System Storage DS8000; IBM XIV Storage System; IBM N series Network Attached Storage (NAS) and NetApp Network Attached Storage. Enhancements include support for multiple snapshot versions and support for FlashCopy of a single mirror set in LVM mirrored environments
- New in Version 6: Improved backup performance via incremental FlashCopy support for the IBM SAN Volume Controller. This eliminates the need to perform a full background copy of the source data for each FlashCopy image that is created. After the initial FlashCopy image is created, only the changed blocks will be copied to the same set of target volumes improving backup performance
- Operating systems supported: AIX
