Hi All,
Server: Windows 2003
TSM Version: 5.5.1.0
Fresh install of TSM server, this is a test environment. All drives are local.
DB volume is on E drive (e:\db1.dsm) and is 12,000MB
Log volume is on L drive (l:\log1.dsm) and is 3,000MB
What I want to do is change this so that I have two DB volumes and 2 log volumes on separate drives:
DB volume 1: e:\db1.dsm (12,000mb)
DB volume 2: f:\db2.dsm (12,000mb)
Log volume 1: l:\log1.dsm (3,000mb)
Log volume 2: m:\log2.dsm (3,000mb)
I have shut down TSM via a halt command, and the "Server1" instance is not running. I go to a DOS prompt, and CD to the "Server1" directory:
cd "\program files\tivoli\tsm\server\server1"
Then I need to run the "dsmserv" command to format and create the new db/log files:
..\server\dsmserv -k server1 format 2 e:\db1.dsm 12000 f:\db2.dsm 12000 2 l:\log1.dsm 3000 m:\log2.dsm 3000
Which means use the "server1" key in the registry, and format 2 db volumes of 12,000MB each, and also 2 log volumes, at 3000mb each all on different drives.
When pressing enter, it appears to start, and then it simply tries to start the previous instance of TSM, rather than formatting any log and db volumes!
I would normally expect it to say that it's formatting the db volumes and then the log volumes.... but I cannot get it to format anything.
I have tried:
* deleting the dsmserv.dsk file (doesn't help as it defines the disk/log files)
* replacing the "format" command with "loadformat" (doesn't do anything different)
Does anyone have any ideas? Essentially I want to blow the existing db/log volumes away (they are empty anyway) and then create them all again on different drives.
Thanks in advance!
Dave
