Hi,
I tested ASR and image backup/recovery using (bart)pe.
ASR runs quite fine unfortunately you have to switch quiten often floppy disks
and CDs.
Image backup works ok as well. However compared to ghost/symantec you have to
build your own PE bootable media *AND* TSM doesn't automatically repart
I've been performing BMR's for the last month on a set of servers, and
have come up with the following recommendations:
1) ASR on windows 2k3 is good. it removes the need for exactly
matching disks on the target, and is quite quick.
2)Using (bart)PE, I've used backup image and rest
I've tested all the options. I really like the on-line image backup and the
off-line image restore with WinPE. Note if you se a Windows 2003 built WinPE
cd you must be at TSM client V5.3.0.5 or later.

BMR concept would differ depending on underlying system design. If you have
FC/IP SAN environment, see the options of booting off SAN and also, snapshot of
root filesystem of Windows. If you have VMware, clustered or not, needs virtual
machine restore, which is just a big file. It will be much q
We've tested BMR with TSM and ASR on Win2003 server, works fine.
It's pretty cool, because TSM backs up the ASR info anytime you do a
regular backup. You don't need to have any CD's or floppies created in
advance; TSM is storing the needed info for you.
Just follow the instructions in the TSM cl
