Hierarchical Storage Management or HSM Hierarchical Storage Management (HSM) migrates files from your local file system to storage, and then recalls the files as needed. Migrating files to a distributed storage device takes advantage of lower-cost storage resources that are available in your network environment for infrequently used files, thus allowing more free space on your local system. IBM Tivoli Storage Manager supports: • IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Space Management (for UNIX) • IBM Tivoli Storage Manager HSM for Windows

SAN (client data)

TSM Clients, with the Storage Agent installed

LAN-free backups and restores use storage area networks (SANs) for data movement between clients and the server, decreasing the network traffic on the local area network (LAN). Shared storage resources (disk, tape) are accessible to both the client and the server over the SAN.
