What is TBMR?

Recover machines directly from IBM Spectrum Protect backups

TBMR allows users to perform a bare machine recovery of an operating system, applications and data direct from an IBM Spectrum Protect (TSM) backup. The vendor describes this recovery as fast, and states it can be fully automated to protect critical systems from the consequences of physical damage, human error or system failure. Users can recover protected systems to any point in time provided by TSM.

TBMR works for ever

Pros

  • It works 99.9% all the time if you setup correctly. In some instance there was issue was disk was not able to read partition. I called support and upload the log file. They told me during recovery point to new modify file instead of reading from backup configuration. It work and able to recover quickly
  • The support is really great. They are always ready to help in any situation.
  • During Sandy storm, we mentioned our challenges. They told us there will two support engineer will be stand by for support any time. Just let them know when you need support.
  • Support is staff is very knowledgeable. They willing to go extra mile all the time

Cons

  • There have been so bugs in the software. They provided me the next day with a temporary fix. In the next release, they will fix the bug permanenly.
  • As far as we use it, I do not see too much on functionality.
  • Setup is unique in every organization. It has been working well so far.

Return on Investment

  • As of today, we are recovering servers without any issue. There is no 100% success. Some servers backup corrupted data and are restored the same way. It is called Garbage in Garbage out. So far management wants to continue the use of this product.
  • My management wants to use TBMR or any other backup.
  • Every year we are buying more licenses.
