Tivoli Storage Manager uses Novell's Storage Management Services (SMS) as the interface to the NetWare operating system. This section discusses the pertinent components of the SMS architecture.
Note that any limitations existing in the SMS architecture imply a limitation of Tivoli Storage Manager.
The TSA presents data in a system independent data format known as SIDF (system independent data format).
To back up the NDS, the target service agent TSANDS.NLM must be loaded on one of the NetWare servers in the network. Typically, TSANDS.NLM is loaded on the same server on which DSMC.NLM is loaded, but these modules can be loaded on separate servers. See Specifying the Entire NDS for Backup for more discussion.
The target service agent for NetWare 5.1 servers is TSA500.NLM. Use for TSA600.NLM for NetWare 6.1 servers.
