The Migration Manager enables you to promote system configuration content of Tpae-based products from one environment to another such from development to test and then on to production. IBM released Maximo 7.5 in 2011 containing significant new improvements to Migration Manager. These improvements are intended to better align the tool set to development practices and reduce the effort needed to identify, collect, package and promote system configurations. In this workshop you will not only exploit standard Migration Manager capabilities such as snapshots and change packages but also become familiar with and effectively utilize the newer features such as Migration Collections, Comparison and Error correction. This workshop will offer a very hands-on approach using customer-provided common migration scenarios as a backdrop and guiding students through implementing those scenarios using Migration Manager tools.

TSM 6.3 incorporates a new set of monitoring and reporting tools. This session will review the monitoring components with an emphasis on configuration to reduce troubleshooting. With these tools, there are two different reporting interfaces. The Tivoli Enterprise Portal, which can be used for monitoring as well as reporting. Both functions will be incorporated into the lab environment. Completely new with reporting will be the Tivoli Common Reporting (TCR) 2.1 environment. In addition to standard reports, this new version of TCR eliminates the requirement to use Business Intelligence and Reporting Tools (BIRT) and SQL to create new reports. The second day will review the standard reports but focus on creating custom reports with the new tool set. This session will require the attendee to be familiar with TSM since it will focus only on the monitoring and reporting capability and will rely on the participant to create storage pools, backup data etc to generate output for reporting.

In this workshop you will review major changes for Tivoli Storage Manager Version 6.x, including database and log structure changes, and major new functions like deduplication.

Topics will include Node Replication, PVU Calculation, DB backup enhancements, Tivoli Storage Manager for Virtual Environments, and more.
