Manage Virtual Environment with IBM Tivoli Storage Manager

Tivoli Storage Manager of IBM protects the virtual and cloud environments of small and large enterprises by unloading all the backup workloads in a central server of the storage management software. This server keeps the backups safe and secured. Administrators of the enterprises can restore virtual machines or create backup policies in just few clicks. 

This empowers your organization to secure important data of your company with making use of the traditional backup windows. It permits you to confidently and reliably safeguard the huge amount of data that the virtual machines of your organization generate. 

TSM Manager for Virtual Environments of an Organization:

• Restores for VMware and Simplifies backups with a user-friendly interface, which you can access within VCloud Directory or VMware vCenter. Also simplifies the file restoration levels.

• Improves the efficiency by restricting duplication, and using other advanced IBM technologies that helps to reduce costs. This also means that you need no periodic full backups for Hyper-V and VMware.

• Permits more frequent and faster snapshots for your critical and acute virtual machines. Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager is separately available that integrates “storage hardware-based snapshots” for supporting instant backups and restoration of larger VMs. It also makes use of the same VM Administration interface and backup interface.

• Flexible copy and retrieving options from “image-level” backups enables you to perform recovery of the database objects, mailbox and files, just by using a single backup of “VMware image”. This permits a “self-service”recovery model for the purpose of object level restoration of SQL data and Microsoft Exchange on VMware.

For multiple uses like test development and reporting without “impacting production systems” TSM manager offers you a point-in-time copy management. VMware image level not only gives the recovery of data, but also the “virtualized computing environment” from patches, applications and operating systems for custom configuration and up gradation. 

• Permits OpenStack cloud backups and VMware vCloudDirectory. Virtual machines form the heart of major “software-defined” data centers and cloud applications. Apart from these, Cloud level restoration and backups reduces the complexity and makes the date protection process much simpler.

• Removes overheads with Improved and Optimized backups of virtual machines by supporting “VMware vStorage APIs” for Microsoft Hyper-V technology and Data Protection.

These are few, but there are various other benefits that IBM Tivoli Storage manager offers to all small and big enterprises. This is one of the most advanced and popular storage management application software that had made management of virtual environment and data lot easier.
