I think you need just to:
- stop TSM Server;
- restore previous file dsmserv.dsk;
- start TSM Server (it will work if TSM database and logs are saved).

Subject: [ADSM-L] Reload TSM DB from db volumes on disk

Hi list,

Is there any way to reload the TSM database after issuing a dsmserv format
command? The volumes from the previous TSM Database and RecLog are
available....but now TSM is pointing to new empty volumes.....

TSM is 5.5.4.0 running on Windows 2003.

Thanks

Mario
