Upgrades
It’s important to keep client and server systems up to date to avoid the
pitfalls of known problems. There seem to be updates coming out more
often than administrators can apply them however, and some
administrators don’t feel comfortable with the major updates.
Dataedge will help you sort through which updates should be considered
critical for your specific environment and will take the responsibility
of
insuring that all applied. This removes many hours of research
and upgrade time from
your administrator and allows them to focus on the day to day activities
of running
the
business.

Performance Tuning & Health Review
Tuning TSM can be quite complex because of the
many
operating systems, network configurations and storage devices that TSM
supports. It requires the diligence and expertise that Dataedge
Solutions brings from our many years of designing and supporting complex
configurations. Dataedge will spend time getting to know your specific
backup environment
and make recommendations not only on the TSM
server but on data
storage, transmission, security and recovery.

you know for sure?

environment and provide you with a detailed report showing the data
retention policies that are in effect for each set of data. Then you can
