IBM SoftwareData SheetIBM Tivoli StorageManager Suite forUnified RecoveryAn inclusive offering that delivers comprehensive dataprotection with simplified licensing and managementHighlights Simplify procurement and deploymentwith per-terabyte capacity licensingUse the right data protection andrecovery tool for each requirementScale to meet the recovery needs of anysize organizationManage it all from a single user consoleProtecting and ensuring the recoverability of data across today’s diverseand distributed enterprises can be complex and costly, and often involvesdeploying numerous nonintegrated point solutions from several vendorsto meet the wide range of application service levels. Examples of thesepoint solutions include different backup products for different operatingsystems and virtual machines, snapshots, continuous data protection,replication and archiving.However, this proliferation of data protection and recovery solutionscan introduce its own risks to the organization as the procurement,licensing and ongoing management of all these different systems becomesincreasingly complex and disjointed. Taking a more comprehensive,unified approach to managing data—recovering any data, anywhere inthe organization, from laptop to mainframe, from a single console—cannot only reduce your capital and operating costs, but can also provideenhanced application availability, leading to improved IT service levels.The IBM Tivoli Storage Manager family of products has long beenrecognized as a leader in unified recovery management, providing theability to protect a wide range of systems including virtual machines, fileservers, email, databases, mainframes and even desktops from a singleadministration interface.The IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Suite for Unified Recovery providesstorage and backup administrators with a simplified, alternative methodfor procuring and deploying throughout the infrastructure the dataprotection and recovery solutions that meet the needs for their particular

With this inclusive offering, you can deployany of 10 different solution components, in any location andquantity, with a simplified license that measures only theamount of data being managed. License costs can be reducedthrough the use of built-in source and target data deduplicationand archiving, and there is no charge for duplicate copies ofthe data.This advanced, highly scalable suite helps increase the efficiencyof your IT operations and helps cut costs related to storagemanagement by providing a wide range of data protection,recovery management and monitoring capabilities usingpolicy-based automation, including:Tivoli Storage Manager Suite for Unified Recovery helps youto answer, in the affirmative, this important question: “In a datadisaster emergency, where downtime may be costing you tensof thousands of dollars per minute, are you confident that theright person, with the right training and password, will accessthe right system to restore the right data, to the right place,without breaking anything else, in a timely manner?” Backup and recovery; archive and retrievalSnapshots for online database and application protectionDisaster recovery planning and replicationBare machine recoveryData deduplication and space management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he Tivoli Storage Manager family of products can protect a wide range of systems, including virtual machines, file servers, email, databases, mainframes and evendesktops from a single administration interface.2

The productscales from small to very large installations—managing up tofour billion data objects in a single server—and supports morethan 50 operating system versions and hundreds of server andstorage devices. It also facilitates a multitude of connections,including Internet, wide area networks (WANs), LANs andstorage area networks (SANs).Employ simplified licensingTivoli Storage Manager Suite for Unified Recovery offers asimplified licensing model based on a tiered-per-terabyte metricfor data stored within Tivoli Storage Manager primary storagepools and Tivoli Storage Manager FastBack repositories. Thismodel makes license procurement, management and futurebudgeting much simpler, as compared to processor and coremetrics. With this model, users can deploy as many of the solutions listed above as they need anywhere in the organizationwithout incurring any additional per-product license charges.As the amount of data being protected grows, the cost ofadding additional licenses decreases. Users can also takeadvantage of a significantly lower price for storing data longterm by leveraging the Tivoli Storage Manager Suite forUnified Recovery – Archive Option.3

IBM SoftwareData SheetUnify recovery managementThere is also a lower priced offering, Tivoli Storage ManagerSuite for Unified Recovery Entry, for smaller environmentswhere the amount of primary backup data will not exceed100 terabytes and no more than two Tivoli Storage Managerservers will be needed. Once either of these limits is reached,the user will need to upgrade to the standard offering.One of the major costs of storage management is the need toadminister many different data protection solutions, especiallywhen users must react to restore requests involving multipletools. Tivoli Storage Manager Suite for Unified Recoverybrings the management of backup and restore together into asingle user interface, from across:Leverage an advanced architecture forrobust functionality Tivoli Storage Manager Suite for Unified Recovery helpsorganizations improve business continuity and reduce the risksof data loss, minimize complexity, better manage costs andaddress strict compliance requirements. Through progressiveincremental backups, data compression and built-in data deduplication, the amount of backup data being stored is significantly reduced, thereby reducing the cost of the per-terabytelicense. With this comprehensive solution set, you can also: System and application types—virtual servers, file servers,databases, emailLocations—data centers, headquarters and remote/branchoffices, disaster-recovery sitesService-level requirements—recovery point and recovery timeobjectivesTypes of failures—lost files/messages, data corruption,hardware failures, natural disastersFrom the Tivoli Storage Manager Administration Center, youcan configure and set policies for each protected system, monitor and report on both client and server operations, scheduleand push upgrades for client agents, and execute backup andrestore operations.Efficiently manage multi-location backupsAutomate data migration between storage tiers and retainarchivesGenerate daily-updated disaster-recovery plans and replicateTivoli Storage Manager data and metadata offsiteImplement retroactive policy changesAutomatically distribute upgrades to client agentsReduce your data storage footprintTivoli Storage Manager Suite for Unified Recovery helps youaddress the relentless growth of data being created and retainedthrough a number of leading-edge data-reduction capabilities,including:Tivoli Storage Manager Suite for Unified Recovery providessuperior functionality, performance and reliability because itutilizes a fully integrated, enterprise-class DB2 relationaldatabase and transaction log to track the managed data’s metadata.
