Hi, Gill.

After you did your dsmfmt's to create your db and log volumes, did you then
do a dsmserv format?

Ok, I'm working on a test to restore the DB on my test server. At the moment
I've hit a wall and wonder if someone can shed some light. The server is an
H50, AIX5.1 TSM 5.1.7, the library is an automated 3494, the drives are
fiber attached 3590's.



I installed AIX5.1, TSM 5.1.7, which is what was on it before. I've
formatted DB and log space. I have the volhist file, devconf, dsmserv.opt
and dsmserv.dsk I saved. I did notice the tape drives came up in a different
order so I changed the devconf file. I decided to fly by night and create DB
and logs with a name I would dream up just in case I was the one who got
whacked and someone else needed to do this without much help. Not sure if
that is an issue.



I put the files back where they belong, the library is available because
mtlib commands work. The question is why do I get this output when trying to
restore? I looked up the error and it doesn't make sense because the db is
formatted and there. The size of the file is large enough, 15GB, to restore
a db backup that really has nothing in it except 2 computers I've been
backing up to test.
