What Does It Do and How Do I Implement It?

For companies of all sizes, backup and recovery is critical to an overall Disaster Recovery Strategy. IBM's Backup, Recovery and Media Services (BRMS) uses a disciplined approach to managing your iSeries backups, while providing a systematic way to retrieve lost or damaged data.

This session will introduce you to BRMS and how it can manage your backups and the media needed to recover the server in the event of a disaster. Kendall Kinnear, Senior Systems Architect at KS2 Technologies, Inc., will review the benefits of BRMS and provide examples of setting up simple backup and media management plans.
