Residency Announcement: ST-0454 Integrating Tivoli Storage Manager with
Tivoli Enterprise
Benefits to Resident: The residents will have the opportunity to try out
the new functions in a risk-free multi-platform lab environment. Through
direct access to developers and working with expert peers they will be able
to develop leading edge skills in this exciting new integration area. The
skills learned will be of much value in consulting, solution design and
services implementation projects.
This residency begins 15 May 2000, ends 23 Jun 2000 (6 weeks), and requires
3 residents.
Description: This project investigates Tivoli Storage Management's
integration and implementation into the Tivoli Enterprise.
Currently planned items are:
'TEC integration' (both from the TSM sever and TDP agents).
Service desk installation (ability to launch Web client from service desk)
TDP for Workgroups integration with IT Director (software distribution,
event management, and so on)
TDS Guide (currently redbook in progress - might refer to or update with
capacity items)
Objectives: To take the latest levels of code in the subject areas and to
test their integration and function. To produce an IBM Redbook and
Web-delivered materials summarizing our experiences.
This residency is suitable for Customers, Business Partners, and IBMers.
A basic requirement for all residents is the ability to read and clearly
express concepts and procedures in common English.
Resident Prerequisites: A good practical understanding of Tivoli Framework

specific examples of work completed in these areas and products worked
upon.
Skill levels below are from 5 to 1, where 5 = expert skill and 1 = no
skill.

Important: Even if you cannot be a resident now, perhaps you could provide
or point us to appropriate, already-existing materials as potential input
to our development efforts. We would appreciate your help in identifying
any useful material that can be expanded, referenced, or included as is.
If the material significantly contributes to the produced redbook, we will
acknowledge your assistance and may even name the creator as a contributing
author. We believe that your help will leverage the value of the
already-existing materials and will result in better redbooks produced in
shorter cycle times.
The ITSO Residency program has been honed over many years to provide the
maximum benefit to residents and their businesses. IBM organizations,
Business Partners, and customers that have provided residents report that
the returning employee has gained significant new skills to enable them to
support IBM's latest products. These skills can be employed either
directly for services generation or indirectly in technical support of the
sales effort. Furthermore, the contacts made by the resident within the
development community and with the other residents are invaluable in
keeping these skills up-to-date.
