Download Information: Version 4.1.4 IBM Spectrum Protect™ Snapshot

Download Description

Tip: Beginning with Version 4.1.3, Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager is now IBM Spectrum Protect™ Snapshot. Some applications such as the software fulfillment systems and IBM License Metric Tool use the new product name. However, the software and its product documentation continue to use the Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager product name. To learn more about the rebranding transition, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21963634.

An update is available for IBM Spectrum Protect Snapshot Version 4.1. These 4.1.4 packages do not contain a license enablement file.
