Hi group,
I need to figure out a way to start TSM without running the EXPIRE INVENTORY process on startup. Long story short, we lost a lot of backups from our primary server due to a malfunctioning client causing the server to think the data had been deleted so all the inventory expired. The malfunctioning client just suffered a catastrophic failure, so I need to get the data back. I suspect the data may exist on the second server as the server was decommissioned, but being the backup is so old I don't want the expire process to just trash all our data again.
Bottom line is, how do I start TSM with the assurance that EXPIRE INVENTORY will *not* run on start?
Thanks,
Kai
