My two cents:  If they person doesn't hold a IBM Certified Advanced
Deployment Professional - IBM Service Management Tivoli Storage Management
Solutions V2 certification, then I'd want them to be at least a Deployment
Professional in TSM and have performed the archtecting of at least one or
two successful TSM-based implementations.  Or have implemented many
successful TSM-based solutions of varying complexity.

An administrator doesn't necessarily need to 'design' the implementation,
though the admin needs to understand it.

If that riles up a few administrators who feel they can architect a
solution ... I suggest becoming certified as a deployment professional or
advanced deployment professional (might as well let the cert reflect who
you truly are, even if your position is "only" an admin position ... ;-).

Many thanks!

[ADSM-L] Not technical more managerial question






before granting someone the title Backup and Restore Architect,
what requirements should the person be able to fulfill.   I am looking to
see what is the difference in proficiency and skill-sets between
an administrator and an architect,  Any input, short list, etc  will be
greatly appreciated
