Hello,
we had a crash on our TSM server, and we have lost db, recovery log, volume history and everything else. The only thing we have is a DB backup full on tape...
So I've reinstalled everything and I'm trying to restore that db, but I don't know in which tape it was saved (I have a SCSI library with more than 100 DLT tapes).
I've rebuild the device config file, but when I run
DSMSERV RESTORE DB DEVCLASS=DLTCLASS1 VOLUMENAMES=000001
(I'm searching for the right tape...)
I got the message
ANR8324I DLT volume 000001 is expected to be mounted (R/O)
ANR4621I Database backup device class DLTCLASS1
ANR4622I Volume 1: 000001.
AND4632I Starting point-in-time database restore (no commit)
ANR8312E Volume 000001 could not be located in library lb6.0.0.2
ANR1402W Mount request denied for volume 000001 - volume unavailable
ANR4578E Database backup/restore terminated - required volume was not mounted
It seems to me that TSM is not able to ask the library to mount tapes...
Any suggestions ?
Thank you
Mmoro
PS: I'm running TSM v4.1.4 on Win2k, with a SCSI library, nr.4 DLT8000 drives
