Silverstring launches Predatar™ V6 for IBM Tivoli users

 

Bloxham, Oxfordshire, UK – 12th July 2010

 

The latest version release of Silverstring’s Predatar™ Storage Management Automation tool, combined with IBM’s Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) backup software, results in the finest enterprise data protection solution available.

 

What is Predatar?
Predatar is the complete systems management platform specifically designed for users of TSM and multivendor storage environments. Predatar automates the monitoring, alerting and incident management processes for TSM as well as other IBM Storage solutions. Predatar is unique as it offers systems management and reporting in one package, is quick to install and requires no specialist knowledge to use it.

 

Predatar V6
The latest release of Predatar now offers full support for both TSM V5 and TSM V6 servers including:

  • New reports and alerts which include specific detail regarding the new database and recovery log setup in TSM V6
  • A new alert which provides a warning of any clients that have not made contact with the TSM server for a pre-defined amount of days
  • The new Predatar Client Report which has the capability to report on the success rate of all TSM Client Backups for the entire TSM environment in a single and auditable report
  • Enhancements to TSMagic™, the only tool to identify, improve and protect the entire TSM environment

 

Predatar and TSM are key elements of our Reduce Automate Protect (RAP) philosophy. The three cornerstones combine to build intelligent platforms for storing data, with policies matched to business needs. Once built, we can then provide intelligent administrative support. It’s what makes Silverstring different and it’s what can deliver competitive advantage to businesses.

 

Why Predatar?
Predatar has been helping clients since November 2006 to lower the cost of operating enterprise backup and storage environments.

 

With Predatar installed, clients will quickly realize the following benefits:

  • Automation of resource hungry and tedious administration tasks
  • Significantly reduced costs
  • The ability to both measure and reduce risk
  • Improved service delivery
  • The ability to meet compliance objectives more easily
  • Improved visibility of storage and backup environment

 

Dr Brian Robertson, Head of Infrastructure at The University of Aberdeen says, “Predatar has helped my team to achieve close to 100% backup success rates and allowed the many tasks associated with managing enterprise backup to be shared collaboratively across 1st and 2nd line support. I now have good visibility of the performance of our IBM TSM infrastructure.”

 

TSM V6 and Predatar V6 combine to deliver the ultimate data protection solution for reducing risk and cost, and simplifying effective management of data protection infrastructures through automation.
