There is a definite product path to support BMR on all platforms. Currently, with the loss of TKG/Veritas BMR, Tivoli is recommending other products for Windows NT. I might be able to find the press release if you ask.
As already mentioned, IBM's SysBack is now under the 'Tivoli Storage Manager for System Backup and Restore' AKA BMR. Others will also be soon. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Bill Boyer Sent: Thursday, 13 February 2003 4:43 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: TSM 5.2 Question As part of the 5.2 announcement, I remember reading something about TSM supporting a new feature of either XP or .NET that Microsoft was adding to support BMR functionality... I'll have to see if I can dig up the actual document again. As for Unix, there wasn't anything, but the "old" Sysback product is now the "new" Tivoli name.

As far as purchasing Veritas BMR, Veritas has announced that they will not support future TSM versions and that all future development will be done exclusively with NetBackup.

Or should I assume that it will never happen and purchase Baremetal Restore from veritas.
