Hi Arnaud!
Error 2 is an AIX return code meaning "No such file or directory".
This is probably because /tsmdb/log1 does not exist. Did you use the DSMFMT
command to create this file?
I also noted a difference in filename between the command you issued and the
error returned. I assume this is a typo?
Kindest regards,

Subject: Real DR situation : dsmserv format fails; errno = 2 !
Hi List,
I had a call from one of our branches, telling me their TSM server crashed.
Unfortunately they had their log and db files sitted on the same unmirrored
disk, so basically everything is lost.
I'm now trying to initiate a DR scenario, but face a first problem : issuing
"dsmserv format 1 /tsmdb/log1 1 /tsmdb/" returns
Tivoli Storage Manager for AIX-RS/6000
Version 4, Release 1, Level 3.0

ANR0900I Processing options file dsmserv.opt.
ANR000W Unable to open default locale message catalog, /usr/lib/nls/msg/C/.
Error opening file /tsmpool/log1, errno = 2
What does that mean ?
Additional question : as I never worked with that system, and they had poor
documentation, I have no idea of the original size for db and log volumes.
The only thing I found was their dsmserv.dsk file, wich looks like :
#dsk_comment#page_shadow_token:1030111093811
/tsmdb/tsmdb1.dsm
/tsmdb/tsmlog.dsm
/tsmdb/tsmdb.dsm
/tsmpool/dbvol3.dsm
Will the above format command (If successful) be enough to initiate a later
"restore db" command without problem ?
Many thanks for your help in my first disaster recovery attempt ...
Arnaud
