Ron, The three BMR Servers required are best described as "logical components". All three (Main, File, and Boot Server) can be co-located on one machine - this machine can also be the TSM server. The server components have to run on a UNIX machine - either AIX, Solaris, or HP UX. If the components are separated, only the Main server must also run a TSM (or ADSM) client.
BMR clients - machines to be protected - must have both TSM BA Client (ADSM version 3.1.0.20 or higher or TSM version 3.7, 4.1, or 4.2) and BMR Client. Hope that helps... cc52 wrote: >I was looking thru the BMR (Bare Metal Restore) documents on the >Kernal Groups web site.
