The new feature of ADSM for AIX called Disaster Recovery Manager
provides:
  - Determination of what database backup and copy storage pool volumes
    need to be moved offsite/back onsite (includes capability to
    expire a database backup series) and tracks the media
    location in the ADSM database.  This is accomplished with
    the new ADMIN commands MOVE/QUERY DRMEDIA.
  - Automated generation of a server disaster recovery plan file.  The
    plan file includes:
    - List of ADSM database backup and copy storage pool volumes
      required to perform the recovery (the off-site location where
      the volumes reside is included).
    - Installation specific server recovery instructions.
    - Devices required to read the database backup and copy storage pool
      volumes.
    - Space requirements for the ADSM database and recovery log.
    - Copy of ADSM configuration files (volume history, device configuration,
      and server options file).
    - Shell scripts and ADSM macros required to recover the ADSM server.
   The disaster recovery plan file is generated with the new ADMIN
   command PREPARE.
