Improve the efficiency of your Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) environment

Adding too much costly primary disk to stay within backup windows? Restore times too slow? TSM Housekeeping Processes taking too long? Need more efficient deduplication? The SEPATON S2100® data protection platform delivers the performance, flexibility and mount points you need to optimize the efficiency of your TSM environment. You can reduce or eliminate your primary disk pool and back up directly to a SEPATON system, reducing or eliminating the need for costly primary disk pools. Replicate directly to a second SEPATON system for disaster protection without slowing your TSM server.

The SEPATON S2100 performs TSM Backup and Restore operations for even the largest data volumes at up to 34.6 TB/hour – the fastest rates in the industry. It also lets you add mount points as you need them to optimize your TSM server performance. SEPATON completes TSM Backup and Restore operations so quickly that you can eliminate your Primary Disk Pool and make the most of LAN-Free TSM backups. Faster TSM backups give you ample time to create off-site copies.

Cut costs with SEPATON's scale-out architecture.

SEPATON's unique DeltaScale™ scale-out architecture combines a high mount point count with the ability to configure multiple logical libraries and both scalability and speed to cut administration time and capital expense.  Start with a single SEPATON Replication Engine (SRE®) processing node and scale up to eight nodes for maximum ingest performance. Scale physical capacity simply by adding disk capacity to maintain store as much as 1.6 PB of physical capacity data on a single system; store even more with DeltaStor® deduplication software.

Control data volumes with advanced data deduplication.

Only SEPATON has a ContentAware™ approach to deduplication that is optimized for TSM backup processes. DeltaStor deduplication software collects and analyzes metadata from the backup stream to dramatically reduce the capacity requirements of your TSM environment while maintaining fast TSM backup performance. Advanced features include scalable multinode deduplication performance and global deduplication of data across nodes, and concurrent processing to handle large data volumes with maximum efficiency.

Get complete disaster protection with bandwidth-optimized replication.

Use DeltaRemote® replication software to move TSM backup data to your disaster recovery location electronically or to replicate from a SEPATON S2100-DS3 in your branch locations to your main data center. DeltaRemote works in conjunction with DeltaStor deduplication software to cut bandwidth requirements by as much as 97 percent by identifying and transmitting only new data and "pointer" information for duplicate data. DeltaRemote is designed to improve your RTO and help you meet your disaster protection requirements with fast, simple disk-based remote replication.

Extend your TSM data protection to branch locations.

SEPATON S2100-DS3 data protection platform can deliver faster TSM Backup and Restore operations in an easy-to-manage system designed for branch locations. Remote operation and automatic load balancing let you manage the DS3 systems from your main data center.

Benefits include:

• Capacity reduction — Deduplication optimized for TSM backup environments
• High performance — Get the industry’s fastest TSM backup performance at up to 34.6TB/hour.
• Flexibility — Configure mount points as you need them to handle even the largest TSM backup volumes.
  With fast TSM backup performance you can eliminate unplanned Disk Migrations and cut your backup windows.
• Scalability — Simply add processing nodes to scale performance of an S2100-ES2; scale capacity simply by adding disk shelves.
• Reliability — Backup data without tape drive failures and cumbersome media management.
