Backup-archive client
Allows users to maintain backup versions of their files,
which they can restore if the original files are lost or
damaged. Users can also archive files for long-term storage
and retrieve the archived files when necessary. Users or
administrators can register workstations and file servers as
client nodes with an TSM server.
Hierarchical storage management (HSM) client
Provides space management services for workstations on
some platforms. TSM users can free workstation storage by
migrating less frequently used files to server storage. These
migrated files are also called space-managed files. Users can
recall space-managed files automatically simply by accessing
them as they normally would.
Application programming interface (API)
Allows users to enhance existing applications with backup,
archive, restore, and retrieve services. When users install the
TSM API client on their workstations, they can register as
client nodes with an TSM server.
