TBMR
Recover machines directly from IBM Spectrum Protect backups
Cristie TBMR software protects your critical servers from the consequences of failure or disaster by recovering them directly from your IBM Spectrum Protect (TSM) backups.
Adding TBMR to your TSM environment simplifies and enhances your disaster recovery process. TBMR recovers the operating systems, applications, user configuration and data, in one step, to any point in time available in TSM backup software.
What’s more, TBMR can recover to any available environment; physical, virtual or cloud.
Simplify the recovery process further with automation, and schedule fully auditable recovery tests into physical, virtual and cloud environments.
Make sure that all your environment is functional in the event of a disaster, without having to rely on manual intervention from system administrators.
TBMR can be managed through the Cristie Virtual Appliance (VA), enabling centralised management for all the machine replication, migration and disaster recovery software that we offer.
