Tivoli Space Manager for UNIX Using the Hierarchical Storage Management Clients
This manual provides information to help you perform the following tasks on
your workstation:
- Install the HSM client
- Register your workstation
- Select your options for space management
- Select space management options
- Migrate your files automatically or manually
- Back up or archive your migrated or premigrated files
- Recreate your stub files
- Recall your migrated files
- Reconcile your file systems
- Schedule services.
The terms hierarchical storage management and space
management have the same meaning throughout this manual.
The HSM client includes two installed versions: a graphical user
interface (GUI) client, and a command-line client. This manual provides
information for both.
You must install the Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) backup-archive client on
your workstation before you can use Tivoli Space Manager. This manual
does not provide information about using the backup-archive clients.
Tivoli Storage Manager is a separate client-server licensed program that
provides storage management services.
In addition to the HSM client, the following programs are included on
several operating systems:
- A backup-archive client program that backs up and archives files from your
workstation or file server to storage, and restores and retrieves backup
versions and archived copies of files to your local file systems.
- An application program interface (API) that you can use to enhance an
existing application with storage management services. When you
register an application with a server as a client node, you can back up,
restore, archive, and retrieve objects from storage.
- A Web backup-archive client that an authorized administrator, support
person, or end user can use to perform backup, restore, archive, and retrieve
services using a Web browser on a remote machine.
- An administrative client program that you can access from a Web browser or
from the command line. An administrator controls and monitors server
activities, defines storage management policies for backup, archive, and space
management services, and sets up schedules to perform these services at
regular intervals.
- A server program in a UNIX environment that performs either as a backup
and archive server, or as a migration server for distributed workstations and
file servers. The server program also supplies HSM services.
