Tivoli CDP for Files– ConfigurationHigh-Priority Files

► Specify up to three target areas for high priority files► Target area(s) will capture every save of a file when it occurs.► Local target area is auto-managed as a pool with a configurable size.

• Old versions deleted to make room for new version.► Local area allows for un-tethered restore► Option to specify a remote file server for off-machine protection; still real-time,

but tolerant of being disconnected.► Option to specify a TSM server for off-machine protection; still real-time, but

tolerant of being disconnected.

All other files► All other files are protected on a periodic basis to the remote file server or

TSM server.► Change-journal eliminates ever having to scan the file system.► Files “versioned” on remote file server allowing for point-in-time restore.► Remote versions are automatically managed to a configurable pool size.



Tivoli CDP for Files Retention

Easy to Configure.1. Create folders defining a length of

time for file retention.2. Drag-and-Drop, copy or save files to

the appropriate CDP folder.3. Those files cannot be deleted or

altered for the defined time period.

► Optimized Storage Resource Utilization• Move low-activity or inactive files to a hierarchy of lower-cost storage• Reduce backup times and resource usage by focusing on active files

► Enhanced Storage Personnel Productivity• Eliminate manual file system clean-up activities



Rules Based Windows HSM

Based on rules (policies)► Include/exclude directories► Include/exclude file types (extensions)► Filter files based on creation, modification, or last access date► Absolute or relative date► Several different rules possible► Rules are stored as XML documents

Example► All documents with extension DOC (Word documents) in directory

\\server2\E$\Users\Smith and its subdirectories that have not been accessed for 90 days

HSM modes► Replace the file with a stub – DEFAULT► Keep the original file (do not remove, archive only)► Delete the file from the file server (archive delete)

* Term ’archiving’ subject of change



Windows HSM InterfaceAdmin GUI and command line

► Administration rights to the file server to install HSM client► Local administration► Search and retrieve migrated files► Exclude/Include based on Windows file type► Estimate space saving without execution
