Enhancements in V3R7
Performance Improvements
The Tivoli Storage Manager AS/400 server, at the Version 3.1 level, is now using the AS/400
“root” file system to enhance performance. The “root” file system takes full advantage of the
AS/400 stream file support and hierarchical directory structure of the integrated file system.
The Tivoli Storage Manager AS/400 server database, log, and disk storage pool volumes can
be located in the “root” file system. The AS/400 server is modified to support both the legacy
file system and the “root” file system. This permits you to install the enhancement without
affecting an existing server, providing a much easier transition path. You can even convert
your files in steps.
Enterprise Management Enhancements
The Tivoli Storage Manager enterprise management enhancements are now available for the
Tivoli Storage Manager AS/400 server. These functions now compare to those implemented
for the AIX, Windows NT, HP-UX, Solaris, OS/390-MVS, and VM/ESA server platforms,
include:
• The user-friendly enterprise console functions that enable the administrator to manage
Tivoli Storage Manager from any platform in the enterprise with a Web-based
interface. This allows the administrator to navigate, logon, and perform functions on
any Tivoli Storage Manager server or Web backup-archive client from a supported
Web browser.
• Enterprise reporting mechanisms that provide the ability for the administrator to obtain
information about the Tivoli Storage Manager enterprise as a whole. Enhanced
automation functions that eliminate or reduce staff-intensive manual procedures by the
use of:
– Server scripts to automate server management operations
– Policy constructs that allow the automatic extension of the server database and/or
recovery log when administrator-defined thresholds are reached
• Enterprise configuration and policy management that allows Tivoli Storage Manager
configuration and policy information to be defined one time at a Tivoli Storage
Manager configuration server and then propagated to any number of managed Tivoli
Storage Manager servers.
• The enterprise command routing functions that lets an administrator use a single
command to perform such tasks as queries on groups of networking Tivoli Storage
Manager servers as well as a single server. Results of the routed commands are
returned to the origin of the request.
• The enterprise logging function that allows Tivoli Storage Manager servers in an
organization to forward their events and those of their clients to a server designated as
