Hi *'SM Gurus !

A probably easy question for anybody involved in this kind of
installation : we are planing to  install HACMP between two AIX boxes,
let's call them A and B.
The A box is hosting an informix db, wich is doing it's online backups
thru onbar, using it's own dsm.sys with hostname A. 
The B box is also hosting an informix db, wich also has it's own online
backup, using it's own dsm.sys, hostname B.
Imagine the A box fails : machine B will automatically relay it, and
temporarily host the A informix db. 
Problem is as follows : what about a restoration of my informix db back
to sytem A ? 
Probably a full level 0 backup was made at the time the db was on server
A, but all intermediary logs (logical logs) have been made as my
informix db was hosted on system B : how do I do a restore of my db if
part of the files belong hostname A and other part hostname B ? Do I
need to install two different instances of tsm on each node, to be able
to do my restore ?  Lots of questions in fact, and absolutely no idea
how to do it ! :-((
I'm not an informix specialist nor HACMP, so please, if you give me some
infos, try to be as basical as possible ;-) 
Many many thanks in advance to any informix-hacmp god(esss) willing to
help me !
Arnaud
