IBM Storage Protect Client Software
The ISP client software is required to back up servers in the IBM Storage Protect (ISP) backup environment. This is better known under its old name, TSM Client.
Please note: The client must be updated regularly, including for security reasons. If problems arise with older clients, the first step in troubleshooting is to use the current client.
Installation instructions
The RRZ offers installation instructions adapted to the locally operated ISP servers for the following operating systems:
If you need a client for systems not listed here, you can find them on the IBM servers. However, the RRZ only offers further support for the operating systems listed on our subpages.
Request for a Backup Node
The prerequisite for this is that you have requested a backup node for the server to be backed up. This can be done via the RRZ Service Portal. There you will find the application form in the catalog under “Server” (direct link to the form, only in the UHH network).
