ADSM TSM Backup for Apple Macintosh

 

There are two kinds of programmers: those who have lost data, and those who will.

Use the ACCC's ADSM service to backup your personal computer over the network, unattended. Retrieve files you inadvertently erase or recover from hard disk failure. Do this before you lose files!

Only UIC faculty and staff are eligible to use ADSM; only one personal workstation per person, and that workstation has to be on the UIC campus.

Note that we don't have the Archive feature of TSM turned on.

There are separate versions of TSM for just about all Mac OS version, and they all work differently. So there is a ADSM group page for Mac:

ADSM For Macs

The ACCC's ADSM service uses IBM's Tivoli Storage Manager Backup-Archive Client (TSM) to do the backup and restores. (Archive services is not available.) The current versions are:

  • TSM version 5.5 for Mac OSX 10.5, Intel or PowerPC (version 5.5.1.0)
  • TSM version 5.4 for Mac OS X 10.4.7 to 10.4.11, Intel or PowerPC (version 5.4.2.3)
  • TSM version 5.3 for Mac OS X versions 10.3.9 to 10.4.6, PowerPC Mac G3 or higher (version 5.3.5.3)
  • For Mac OS X 10.1 to 10.3.8 -- Earlier versions of Mac OS X are no longer supported.
  • TSM version 5.1 for Mac OS 9 (version 5.1.5.1)
  • The previous TSM Backup-Archive Client for the Mac client is still available; it works with Mac OS System 7.x, Mac OS 8.0, Mac OS 8.1, and Mac OS 8.5.x.
