IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for System Backup and Recovery - Software Subscription and Support Renewal ( 1 year )

Bare metal restore capability for AIX is provided using IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for System Backup and Recovery (SysBack). SysBack can help back up all or part of an AIX system and be used as a stand-alone product or in conjunction with a Tivoli Storage Manager server. SysBack allows the user to choose from several types of backups, including full system (installation image), volume group, file system, file or directory, and raw logical volume. Backups can be stored on locally attached or network accessible tapes, CDs, and DVDs, or as files on disk, or into a Tivoli Storage Manager server. The full system (installation image) level backup may be used to help recover all or part of a system. You can use this backup to restore that system to its exact state at the time that the backup was taken or allow you to customize your installation during the recovery process.
