Hello TSM gurus,

Any body experienced with backup the tsm database  into a disk or filesystems.

Actually , we have 2 UNIX box model P630.
1 running primary TSM server with 3584 LTO Library and 1 standby TSM server 
with 3584 LTO Library (Similar configuration to primary). The location between 
the two server is around  200KM. (128MB bandwith)

I would like to make the primary TSM database backup onto NFS directory where 
both unix box can see. I also export the information data such as devconfig, 
Volumehistory , on the standby unix box.  The TSM database backup run every 6 
hours via crontab.

Any one who are expert in TSM , please share with me what's the best step to 
configure and  new to most of TSM users.


By the way, I have backup the TSM database onto NFS filesystems and it work 
fine. 
But I cannot restore the database.
The step I did was ...

1. define the DEVICE FILE CLASS called DISK-TMP and directory /nfsdb. (import 
nfs directory).
2. define file library
3. define file drive

backup db type=full file=/nfsdb

On completion , the database volume /nfsdb/858571.dbb was created.

Now I restore on standby TSM server using this command..

#dsmserv server restore db preview=no

/usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin >dsmserv restore db preview=no
