Hi,

as the server is dead it won't hurt to reinstall it. So uninstall, delete remnants, install again - if it does initialize new instance then it can format the DB volumes - so can you too.

(OR)

When restoring DB you do not need the DB and RLOG volumes to be the same - they just need to be atleast the same size.

So try:
check if the dsmserv process does not run, check the free space on /tsm/db and /tsm/log
rename dsmserv.dsk to dsmserv.dsk.old
/opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmfmt -m -db /tsm/db/db.dsm 20000
/opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmfmt -m -log /tsm/log/log.dsm 10000
/opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmserv format 1 /tsm/log/log.dsm 1 /tsm/db/db.dsm
/opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmserv restore db devclass=ltoClass volumename=VOLUME_4 commit=yes
tell us the result

Hi,

for IBM devices you need IBM device driver (not TSM device driver)
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/
Installation should create /dev/IBMChanger0 and /dev/IBMtape0 devices for you. Use these in TSM path definitions.
