Redbook Abstract
Setting Up and Implementing ADSTAR Distributed Storage Manager/400, GG24-4460-00
  Abstract
This document describes ADSTAR Distributed Storage Manager (ADSM) from an AS/400 perspective. It deals with implementing the ADSM/400 server functions, and addresses installing and setting up the five common client environments for the AS/400: OS/2, DOS, Microsoft Windows, AIX, and Novell NetWare.

If you have more than 10 client workstations, such as PCs or PS/2s, attached to your AS/400 and backup and recovery of files on these workstations is becoming a nightmare, then ADSM/400 may be the product you need. This publication will give you an overview of the things you need to consider in using this important product for the AS/400 including planning, performance, comparison with popular alternatives such as PC Support shared folders, and also discusses interoperability with Backup Recovery and Media Services/400 (5763-BR1).
