Theoretically you could restore a TSM database backup to before the
deletion occurred.  As long as the media upon which that clients data
had not been reclaimed and reused, you can get that data back.  Lots of
mights and maybes in the process and taking your production server back
several days is a distinctly bad idea so think test server.

This is one of those deals where you ask how badly does somebody want
something as this is a ginormous pain the tush.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Deleted Node

One of the node was deleted on our server last Thursday.  And now our
customer wants a file from the node.  Is there any way to get that file
restored from the deleted node.  I appreciate any input.

 

 

Thanks
