IBM Tivoli Storage Manager can help protect your organizations data from hardware failures and other errors by storing backup and archive copies of data on offline storage. Scalable to protect thousands of computers running more than a dozen different operating systems, its intelligent data move and store techniques and policy- based automation work together to maximize data protection and minimize time and administration costs. Centralized data backups and restores Data backups store a copy of your active online data on offline storage. If an online storage device fails, a data error occurs or someone accidentally deletes a file, the offline copy of that data can be restored quickly to online storage. Tivoli Storage Manager uses multiple techniques to make data backups and restores fast and flexible while minimizing the impact of data protection on computers, networks and storage. Managed data archiving and retrieval Data archives are copies of active or inactive data from online storage that are stored offline for a specified amount of time. Archives are especially useful for regulatory or bookkeeping purposes, providing point-in-time copies of important data. Managed data archives implemented by Tivoli Storage Manager are managed for a defined lifetime through the policy-based automation engine, just like backed-up data. The Tivoli Storage Manager client can quickly and easily retrieve the archived data, giving you a secure, easy way to store important data for long periods. 24x365 online data protection for business-critical applications Some business-critical application programs must remain operational continuously. Many of these around- the-clock applications have built-in capabilities that control external data protection applications to allow data backups and restores to occur while the application continues operating

Tivoli Storage Manager offers separate add-on software modules to interface with these applications, including:
- IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Mail
- IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Databases
- IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Enterprise Resource Planning
- IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Application Servers
- IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Hardware

Hierarchical Storage Management (HSM) and Storage Area Network (SAN)
The following software extensions to IBM Tivoli Storage Manager are available:
- IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Storage Area Networks
For maximum data transfer bandwidth and minimum impact on the LAN, computers connected to a SAN can take advantage of this additional ability of Tivoli Storage Manager to move backup and archive data over the SAN instead of the LAN.
- IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Space Management
For optimum utilization of online storage, this ability of Tivoli Storage Manager can automatically migrate infrequently or unused data files to less-expensive offline storage yet make those files appear to still be online for easy retrieval.

Tivoli Storage Manager is a client/ server application, allowing one server to handle hundreds or even thousands of clients. The administration control of Tivoli Storage Manager is extremely flexible and allows for management by a hierarchy of administrators, each designated with different management authority levels.

- Multiple administrators can manage Tivoli Storage Manager simultaneously.
- Multiple servers can be controlled from any server or through a Web interface from any computer on the network.
- Data restore requests can be initiated and controlled from the Tivoli Storage Manager client, helping reduce administrator workload.
- Flexible client backup and administrator command schedules can automate most procedures.

Benefits
The attributes of Tivoli Storage Manager combine with the broad data protection provided in a single integrated application�backup/restore, archive/retrieve, HSM, SAN operation and business-critical application protection. Together they can help provide a fast return on investment by reducing:
- Amount of offline storage space required for a given amount of data
- Network bandwidth required for data movements
- Impact of data movements on the LAN
- Time required for data movements
- CPU impact on application servers
- IT manpower resources required to protect virtually any given amount of data
