BMR is a separate 3rd party product that The Kernel Group developed in conjunction with IBM/Tivoli. BMR is a great product that provides the ability to perform bare-metal restores of systems. I do not think there is a required level of TSM 4.2 that would need to be applied in order to run BMR. But on the same lines, I would recommend running TSM 4.2.1.x with "x" being a patch level between 1 and 7.

Since the BMR architecture (three of its own servers) seems to be external to the TSM server, is there something that makes TSM 4.2 a required level to use BMR? Ron Greve SDSU Computing Services
