get access to node data

[manner]

hi,

i need help to get access to the backup data of a node that has been destroyed by water.
how can i override the access so that i can restore the data, with my tsm server or a other node?

thanks for the help.

The easiest way, is to impersonate that node.

From any client machine that is on the same platform, start the client using the following option:

For command line:
dsmc -virtualnode={wet_node}

For GUI:
dsm -virtualnode={wet_node}

You will be prompted for the node password when restoring the data. If you are replacing the machine with a new one, then just configure the client on it to use the same nodename as the original machine.

If you do not know the password for the (wet_node).
Via the TSM Server Command Line issue - update node node_name newpassword

Good Luck,
Sias
