Bare Machine Recovery for TSM users (TBMR)

TBMR provides fast automated recovery for TSM users. In the event of a server failure, TBMR will recover the operating system and applications direct from the TSM backup. The recovery can be to the original or to new dissimilar hardware or to a virtual machine. 

TBMR is unique in its ability to recover directly from TSM and without requiring any additional backup to be performed. This means that (unlike other BMR software products) TBMR consumes no additional storage or network bandwidth. TBMR also has the advantage of not requiring a separate backup application to be installed, managed and monitored.

Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) is IBM’s enterprise class backup and archiving software and TBMR works exclusively with TSM and is re-sold by IBM and its channel partners worldwide as the recommended BMR solution for TSM.
