Can someone give me guidance on how you would restore a data base to a 2nd
TSM server instance on Windows?
I'm trying to figure out how to effectively (and safely) work with a test
instance.

I can create the DB for the 2nd instance with: dsmserv -k server2  format
blah.

But when I try to use dsmserv -k server2 restore db, it apparently looks for
the volhist and devconfig files in the server directory not the server2
directory; so dsmserv restore db doesn't appear to support -k.

Anybody done it?
