If you have DRM license use it and run prepare to create DR plan.
The things you need for DR are
1. Database backup: ba db dev=lto type=full
2. Backup of volume history and device configuration: ba devconfig, ba volhist
3. Save a copy of your dsmserv.dsk, dsmserv.opt, devcnfg.out, volhist.out files on a CD or SAN file.
To restore
1. Copy the saved dsmserv.opt to C:\PROGRAM FILES\TIVOLI\TSM\SERVER\DSMSERV.OPT
2. Copy the saved volhist.out to "C:\PROGRA~1\TIVOLI\TSM\SERVER1\VOLHIST.OUT"
3. Copy the saved devcnfig.out to "C:\PROGRA~1\TIVOLI\TSM\SERVER1\DEVCNFG.OUT
4. Initialize the log and database, the # will be however many you had and format to the drive you had them on
"C:\PROGRAM FILES\TIVOLI\TSM\SERVER\DSMSERV" -k "Server1" format # FILE:"E:\TSM\DRM\LOG.VOLUMES" # FILE:"E:\TSM\DRM\DB.VOLUMES
5. Restore the server database to latest version backed up per the volume history file.
C:\PROGRAM FILES\TIVOLI\TSM\SERVER\DSMSERV -k "Server1" restore db todate=mm/dd/yyyy totime=hh:mm:ss source=dbb
6. After that you can start the server
"C:\PROGRAM FILES\TIVOLI\TSM\SERVER\DSMSERV" -k "Server1"
