Topic:    Enterprise-wide storage management

Speaker:  Kenneth Lobb
          IBM
          Atlanta, GA

Location: Hewlett-Packard Building
          20 Perimeter Summit (Near Perimeter Mall)
          Atlanta, GA

Date:     Monday, June 4, 2001
Time:     7:30pm

(Our speaker has supplied the following)
  You have been hearing about the rolling blackouts in California
  and are wondering how reliable your backup/recovery strategy is.
  Who knows when it could happen to you?  A power outage is one
  thing -- but how good is your disaster recovery strategy when
  something worse than a rolling blackout comes along?  Are your DR
  tests adequate?

  As valuable as your data/information is within your corporation
  -- doesn't it seem like your management takes backups for
  granted?  Is this a sleeping giant?

  If you'd like some insights on protecting your corporation's most
  valuable assets -- information -- come hear our speaker discuss
  his experiences in implementing backup/recovery and disaster
  recovery technologies designed for heterogeneous environments.
  The particular tool to be discussed is the Tivoli Storage Manager
  (TSM) and it's optional snap-on modules providing capabilities
  for a wide variety of environments. Perhaps you will go home with
  some information that might help you sleep better at night.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Prior to the meeting, there will be an informal, non-structured
"guru" session open to anyone wishing to attend.  This will start
around 6:45pm in the meeting room, and we will have one or more
gurus available to discuss whatever topics/problems/questions the
attendees care to bring up.
