Re: OT? TSM in a hospital environment

We are in the process of installing the GE Centricity RIS/PACs system
for our radiology department. At this point GE is telling our project
manager that nothing can be installed on the servers. The guy on our
side and GE has been going around and around on this but it looks like
GE will have the final say on this.
I suspect that someone on our side didn't completely read (and
understand) the contract that was signed with them.

Been there done (and still doing) that...
We have TSM and related products for our facilities.
(We have standardized our database backups on BMC's SqlBackTrack.)
We weigh the need of the app and usually strong-arm them back...
If a vendor says that we can't touch their data, we DON'T touch their
data.
We put them on the hook for recovery. I think most healthcare-vendors
are
use to hospitals that simply write a check to the vendor for services.
We
are very hands-on with our own data...
Usually, a vendor's South Dakota support resources are not too
spectacular,
and after a disaster or two, they come around to our way of thinking.
Plus, Hospitals seem to have a bit different IT enviroment as shops in
other
industries. We have literally hundreds of applications from different
vendors.
We have different servers, facilities, operating systems, VENDOR's
REQUIREMENTS,
etc...
Anything specific giving you problems?

Are there any folks on the list that are using TSM in a
hospital?
Sometimes we have to battle with some of our software
venders to allow us to backup their system using TSM. Sometimes they
will tell us that the system is FDA approved as is and must be backed up
using a built-in tape drive and we can't touch the system. Some times
that might be believable but not always. It seems that GE appears to be
especially hard headed in this regard.
We bought into TSM because you back up anything (well most
anything) and not have to worry about having assorted different tape
drives scattered everywhere.
I would like to compare notes with other TSM people if
possible.
thanks
