We have been using IBM TSM on one of our critical plant site for file level backup.

What problems is Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am a TSM administrator and I have to provide all the business requirement within the given RPO and SLA.

TSM restore is pretty fast with VTLs especially IBM ProtecTier. ProtecTier will give an alternative for the copy storage pools and we can use the server resources for other activities. I found PT is a best match with TSM backup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
