Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] .EDU> 10/10/2002 11:03 AM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" For TSM AIX only. I just recently saw the IBM web site on AIX SysBack System Backup and Recovery program. Can someone who either knows both, or uses both of them, point out the differences/similarities between AIX SysBack and AIX TSM?? TIA.
