Does anyone have a good recovery senario for NT and / or Novell?
I am going into a DR test soon and will be requrired to recover several
of each, including the TSM server! :(

Yep, it sounds like TSM did a fubar depending on a small vendor
to remain autonimous in the backup/restore/disaster recovery market.
Veritas has good products too.  I have sold both TSM and Veritas
NetBackup.  I still like TSM but it is a harder sell quite often.
