Code Issues Proposed changes
cinder/doc/source/config-reference/block-storage/backup/tsm-backup-driver.rst
Jay S. Bryant 1c0dac0199 Migrate configuration-reference to Cinder repo 
The next patch in the documentation migration process brings over
the very popular configuration reference guide.  This required
moving the 'block-storage' section from config-reference in
openstack-manuals.  It also brings with it a number of supporting
tables.

With this patch in place it becomes imperative that we make sure
that any changes that touch config options also come with a patch
to this part of Cinder.

As with the other changes, this is intended to just make the
content accessible on the web again.  There are definitely
changes/improvements needed to make this integrate better
with out index page and to ensure the content is accurate.
Later patches will address those needs.

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager backup driver

The IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) backup driver enables performing volume backups to a TSM server.

The TSM client should be installed and configured on the machine running the cinder-backup service. See the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Backup-Archive Client Installation and User's Guide for details on installing the TSM client.

To enable the IBM TSM backup driver, include the following option in cinder.conf:

backup_driver = cinder.backup.drivers.tsm

The following configuration options are available for the TSM backup driver.

This example shows the default options for the TSM backup driver.

backup_tsm_volume_prefix = backup
backup_tsm_password = password
backup_tsm_compression = True
