The customer is running a large database (4 TB) and has asked IBM for a proposal to reduce the load on the local area network (LAN) and to minimize the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) backup window. The IBM representative proposed using a LAN-free backup. The required investment contains hardware of 2 HBA (dual ports), fiber channel cable, and GBICs on the storage area network switch and implementation time. Which investment part is missing?
In the process of documenting storage scenarios to scope a project, it is determined that several satellite offices are limited by their bandwidth. Which product is recommended to backup data at the remote locations and later have that data sent to IBM Tivoli Storage Manager at the main data center?
A customer has been running IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for about a year and would like to know more about implementing server-to-server virtual volumes. Which course should the customer take?
A company has IBM Tivoli Storage Manager V6.2 (TSM) in their data center and is planning to open two remote locations, each with four IBM DB2 database servers requiring nightly backups. Which solution provides the most effective data protection for the remote site?
A customer wants to upgrade a Hitachi enterprise storage unit with a tier one IBM storage unit by keeping data access interruption to a minimum. Which product should be recommended to the customer to achieve the migration of the data?
A customers environment is being analyzed and a scenario has resulted in which IBM Tivoli Storage Manager FastBack was a suggested solution. What is the problem?
A SOX compliant customer bought a DR550 archive solution from IBM five years ago. The solution included an IBM tape library, a customized version of AIX, and a customized version of IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM). When the IBM tape library ran out of capacity the customer acquired a Plasmon G80 optical jukebox which is listed in the latest TSM supported devices list. The customer is able to see the optical drives from the operating system but cannot see the library changer. Which recommendation should be documented and provided to the customer?
A customer wants to expand their data protection environment by adding six file and print servers and five 3 TB Oracle databases to an existing IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Server zoned to an 8500 library with 12 T10000 drives. The current environment uses a 10 GigE dedicated backup network and barely meets the backup window documented in the company's Service Level Agreements. Which list of hardware components should be documented and provided to the customer in order to meet the backup expansion requirements taking into consideration the need to use LAN-free backups?
