FWIW, 
I also recommend highly the TSM Technical Guide Redbooks.

For you Jack, they'll just be a quick review.  But those help to keep
you up to speed on the things you may not use day-to-day in your own
shop.

Hi Jack !
Please check at the following link :

http://www-03.ibm.com/certify/certs/tv_index.shtml

IBM Certified Deployment Professional - Tivoli Storage Manager V5.2 or
V5.3
.
You will find the Objectives, a Sample test and recommended educational
resources.
.
They ask that candidates have sufficient background experience (which
seems
to be your case) for the test. The main guide is :

Hope this will help you

TSM Certification






Where can I find the certification requirements for TSM?

Are there some study guides available?



I've been doing this several years now, and folks still seem to want
certifications, so I guess I need to break down and get certified.



Any suggestions or comments?
