Re: Recover TSM Database with ERROR

but to get past this little quirk...
OK, you sould be able to start TSM as if it were a totally new
environment...
do that and since your device class you used to backup the db was a "file",
redefine that ~file_device_class~ in your bare/fresh tsm, halt tsm, and
then perform your recovery again.
Should get you through it...

Hi Eric,

did you make a devconfig and volhist backup after the DB backup and before
the DB restore?

- backup devconfig
- backup volhist

If you didn't, startup TSM (if you still can !!) and make those backups.
Then the restore will succeed.


succes, Oscar
