Abdullah,
correct name for parameter dbvol is vol. So your command should look like
this:

"dsmserv restore db devclass=DISK-TMP vol=/ldb/84849157.dbb commit=yes"

Subject:        Restore TSM database


Hello TSM guru,

Normally, I did a tsm db backup to tape and managed to restore the
database.

And also I have done tsm db backup to file devices class onto filesystem
eg. /ldb. It created the file /ldb/808454.dbb.
But how to restore ?

I tried the following command to restore but not successful.

"dsmserv restore db devclass=DISK-TMP dbvol=/ldb/84849157.dbb commit=yes"

Anybody, who have experience please help...
