Re the question on SAMS:Vantage - this product is no longer supported by the vendor with ADSM/TSM (ie they withdrew the interface). Tivoli do have a reporting/decision support product especially for TSM - it is Tivoli Decision Support for Storage Management Analysis. This agent program now ships free with TSM V4.1, however you do need a Tivoli Decision Support server. More details are in the recent redbook Tivoli Storage Management Reporting SG24-6109 Regards, Charlotte Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ph (408) 927-3641 Fax (408) 927-3616 T/L 8-457-3641 Project Leader, Storage Management, ITSO Almaden http://ibm.com/redbooks
