I am confused with the Subject of this item. Is there a relationship between Veritas's BMR and CA's Brightstore Resource Manager for TSM? I thought that CA's BRM not BMR is a graphical reporting tool that reports on the condition of TSM and its resources and has nothing to do with Bare Metal Restore.

We even fixed an APAR (IC34296) in the 4.2.3 and 5.1.5 releases that impacted BMR.

I had a customer here in the Bay Area call VERITAS to have a presentation on BMR. The response from VERITAS was that the only way this customer could use BMR is if they moved off TSM and used NetBackup exclusively. Has anyone else experienced this? I thought VERITAS was going to push this product's integration with TSM, not use the purchase of The Kernel Group to pouch TSM accounts! -- Joshua S.
