TSM/Tivoli Storage Manager or IBM Spectrum Protect Recovery

Tranzman is capable of migrating TSM to NBU and also to recover TSM written data as files.Now within migrating data to NBU there are further two more classifications :- 1.Tranzman converts the data to NBU format but everything gets converted to files and then traditional DB/Application restore methods are followed. 2.Tranzman converts the data to NBU format and also to the specific policy types i.e. End user will just follow the NBU restore methods to restore different types of data.

So as described in the Overview section overall we have basically three ways of recovering/migrating data.

Below TSM specific Recovery table shows different backup types and their supported recovery methods.You can click on to jump straight to restore steps or by selecting specific backup product on the sidebar under Recovery Documentation.

Note: It is very important that whenever any of the recovery steps are initiated, for the Tranzman Appliance and all relevant servers be synchronised to the correct time, data and timezone. Failure to do this will potentially result in data not being found by the appliance during the restore process.
