New to the community? 5 quick steps to get started!
STEP 1 - Join a User Group
Joining a local user group gives you the opportunity to meet with other Tivoli professionals in your area. Participating in these meetings is a great way to receive new information, gain new technical knowledge, share your thoughts & ideas, and have many of your questions answered. Typically, local User Groups have meetings ranging from once a quarter to just one or two times a year.
STEP 2- Engage in the collaboration services
By engaging in the TUG collaboration services you will be gaining the optimum benefits of your membership. Peer to Peer Knowledge Exchange, which allows you to ask questions of other TUG members, Tivoli Information Exchange, which allows you to download & upload code and best practice documentation, both of which are designed to facilitate a worldwide exchange of ideas, information and experiences for all members. In addition, the Chat functionality helps to facilitate conversation over instant message with either your local user group or the community at large. Also check out the additional ListServs and Discussion groups.
STEP 3- Check back regularly!
