From my understanding of this product, which is very limited, DTCM is for companies implimenting a large TC solution. DTCM allows you to do things like "upgrade this geographic region" instead of doing things on a per chassis basis with the current TCM. Also, I believe that it gives you the ability to say "make chassis A's configuration exactly like chassis B's."

If anyone wishes to comment and correct me, feel free. I have heard precious little on this. das Robert von Bismarck (rvb@petrel.ch) spake:

Hello,

I will be implementing a lot of HiPer-based Chassis soon, and our 3Com rep has told me about something called DTCM (for distributed TCM) which should help a lot for configuring and managing lots of TC's.

Has anyone ever seen / worked with this product ? Is it any good ? What kind of Machine do I need to run it on (I know it only runs on HP-UX and Solaris-Sparc) ?

Thanks for any info,

Robert
