Tivoli on BAFM

IBM (Tivoli) Integrated Solutions Console

Here I am, preparing our environment for the first (of hopefully many) tester for our upcoming VTL project. So I ended up installing the ISC and Administration Center for Tivoli Storage Manager on a 64bit guest (that is SLES10 for AMD64), just because I forgot to include support for later versions with our current running one. Guess what, na- na na na na. Exactly, didn’t work, the same errors I got while trying it before in a virtual environment. “Portlet is not available.”

Backup solutions

Well some people apparently completely don’t understand the use of a backup client like dsmc, additionally they don’t seem to have the slightest clue on how to draw up a “clever” backup solution.

Lemme describe the situation for you. We do have two Solaris systems at work, housing our mailing system(s). Now apparently, people are unable to install the Tivoli Storage Manager Client on Solaris (or get it working properly - which people are blaming on the software not working).
