Changes for Version 3-October 1997

The new functions of TSM Version 3 are:

Event logging and monitoring
You can set up event logging of ADSM client and server events. See ADSM Administrator's Guide and ADSM Administrator's Reference for details.

SQL queries of the ADSM database
You can use SQL queries to get information about the ADSM server and clients. See ADSM Administrator's Guide and ADSM Administrator's Reference for details.

Storing data on another ADSM server
You can store data for one ADSM server (a source server) on another ADSM server (a target server). Using another ADSM server is especially useful for storing backups of the ADSM database and ADSM storage pools. See ADSM Administrator's Guide and ADSM Administrator's Reference for details.

Server file aggregation
ADSM allows small client files to be combined and stored as larger aggregated files. Aggregation can improve performance and reduce database overhead. See ADSM Administrator's Guide for details.

Device support
See ADSM Administrator's Guide and ADSM Administrator's Reference for details on the following enhancements.

Administrative client web interface
You can access ADSM server functions from any workstation with a web browser that supports HTML 2.0 or higher. The workstation does not need to have an administrative client installed. See ADSM Quick Start for details.

Immediate processing of commands on a client
You can use an ADSM administrative command to run operations immediately on a client workstation. See ADSM Administrator's Guide and ADSM Administrator's Reference for details.

Point-in-time restoration of client files
Clients can restore files to a specific point in time if incremental backups have been performed and policy is set up appropriately. See ADSM Administrator's Guide and ADSM Administrator's Reference for details.

Restarting client restoration sessions
Clients can restart restore sessions that have been interrupted. Administrators can request information about these sessions and cancel them. See ADSM Administrator's Guide and ADSM Administrator's Reference for details.

Defining client options at the server
You can define sets of client options at the server, and assign a set to a client when registering the client. See ADSM Administrator's Guide and ADSM Administrator's Reference for details.

Changing server options without stopping the server
You can change some server options and have the changes take effect without stopping and starting the server. See ADSM Administrator's Guide and ADSM Administrator's Reference for details.
