You have to decide on the implication on production of this, but
something I vaguely remember doing once...
- perform the volume usage command
- Set all the applicable tapes to "unavailable" (temporarily)
- Perform the restore, expecting failures
- Search the actlog for the mount errors and compile your list.
- Undo the "unavailable" settings

Hi Rebert,
Thanks you very much for your recommendation. But it still not
convenient to me. Because I have more 50 volumes which related to the
restoration node. Some time more than 30 volumes are put out of library.
It's not comfortable to checkin all volumes of that node for restore
which actually the number of volume may be need 3-6 volumes for
restoration. I ever use bmc and I'm very appriciate to the dry run
option. TSM should develop this one which I think it is very useful for
client.
Wira.

Hi Wira
Maybe this script will help you:
select node_name , volume_name, stgpool_name, filespace_name from
volumeusage where node_name=upper('$1')
Say you name it: Restore_vol
Run restore_vol nodename

Hi,
I used TSM for long time. Until now I'm still feel bad every time
when I have to restore data especially when restore data from API (TDP
for oracle and backup image). The restore data size is very huge so they
need more than one volume to restore. Unfortunable I cannot maintain all
backup volumes in the library. So there are some volumes place out of
library. Every time I plan to setup restore schedule in the night but I
cannot reliably that the restore will be compeleted because I don't know
which volume should checked in before. Any idea please suggest.
Best Regards,
Wira Chinwong
