Part of IBM’s Tivoli With all functions set of software to centralized into a provide Integrated “Single Pane of Service Glass” Management To help Storage Specific to Storage Administrators be Infrastructure, more productive Supporting IBM and non- and effective IBM devices and networks 4#IBMEDGE

For convenience, I will use the abbreviation “TPC” to refer to IBM Tivoli® Storage Productivity Center Note: IBM, HP and Quantum also use the term “TPC” to refer to Technology Provider Companies in the LTO Consortium. Do not confuse the term TPC with the Transaction Processing Performance Council (tpc.org) a non-profit corporation, nor the Tournament Players Club (tpc.com) subsidiary of the Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA)#IBMEDGE
