This has worked for me in the past similar crcumstance.

To Restore a node file for example that is no longer backed up by TSM

*Create a new dsm.opt changeing the node name to afs200 file eg
dsm.opt.afs200 then change the original to dsm.opt.old and change the
afs200 one to dsm.opt.

*Fire up GUI

*FILE > Connection info make sure in this case it says AFS200 your tSM
password will do

*Then restore to c:\temp for example

*Once complete change dsm.opt files around

* Should be all done :)



Cheers

Hi TSMers 


I am running TSM 5.2 on Aix 5.2 backing up Oracle 9i via TDP for oracle
and rman. 
I need to do a restore to another node. 
I have not done this before, and I could do with some guidelines.


Thanks in advance
Thando
