Michael -

Henrik's advice is the best...  It appears that you have a damaged
Recovery Log, or at least one which is inconsistent with the database.

Unfortunately, TSM's architecture leaves the information you need to
examine what happened to the log/db beforehand trapped in the
database you can no longer look at because the server can't be
started - Catch 22.  But gather what info you can, from the Windows
Event Log and perhaps other places, to provide info to IBM.  Find
anything which may have precipitated this, such as a disk failure or
Windows crash.  See if there is a dsmserv.err file in the server
directory as the result of a server failure.

For academic purposes at this point, look at http://adsm-
symposium.oucs.ox.ac.uk/2001/papers/Cannon.ServerInternals.PDF for an
understanding of the LSN as it relates to the database.
