TSM Symposium 2009
Tivoli Storage Manager : Experience the Challenges
Koeln/Bonn Grandhotel Petersberg, 28-30 September 2009
Call for papers
Call for exhibitors
Call for sponsorship
Background:
Following the well-received TSM-Symposia (since 1999) at Oxford
University, this year University of Cologne is hosting the sixth TSM
Symposium, which will be held in the famous Grandhotel Petersberg not
far from Cologne/Bonn. It will have been two years since the last one,
and there will be plenty of Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) related topics
to talk about. This is your chance to join us in experiencing the
challenges with the new and changed functionality in the recent and
upcoming versions and to hear what is expected to come in TSM over the
next couple of years.
Come along and keep up with the very latest features, gain hints and
tips on upgrading your archive and backup services, learn how to exploit
the forthcoming new functionality, and acquire additional technical
insight into TSM. Take full advantage of the presentations from IBM
Development, as well as contributions from other experienced and
established TSM users. Best of all, meet and get to know peer professionals.
How to make a contribution
We are seeking technical contributions in the form of papers and
presentations from the TSM user community - the system managers and
administrators who are arguably the real TSM experts - and this is an
excellent chance to share your knowledge and wisdom!
Technical contributions from TSM solution architects and related storage
vendors are also sought: this is an opportunity to demonstrate the
flexibility and extensibility of TSM.
We also offer excellent opportunities for exhibiting at the Symposium.
Please send e-mail to
