Features - function - benefits
 Feature  Function  Benefit
 Storage-vendor independence  Host-based software migrates data across leading storage environments  Supports flexibility in conducting a technology refresh with TDMF z/OS and provides negotiating power
 Flexible migration options Provides control over input/output (I/O) rate an centrol processing unit (CPU) overhead for read/write, pacing/throttling, tunable copy and replication rate, and adjustable block size of each read/write  Enables online migration activity while maintaining optimal application performance and service levels. With TDMF UNIX, this is accomplished via adjustable copy concurrency for speed.
 Resilient architecture  Current state of migration is maintained, regardless of graceful or nongraceful shutdown, to help ensure continued, recoverable migrations  Migration process can continue in the event of server shutdown and restart
