I've got a netware client server which is backed up nightly. However it has now crashed and we can't get the server back up. I want to restore the backed up data to a new server location. However, I can't effect the restore via the Admin GUI as the original client is down. How do I get the data back from Tivoli to the new location ?



Can I select to restore the node and point the Target Filespace name at the new location ?
 
Found a solution to this problem which bypasses the Admin GUI. After Server A had crashed I wanted to restore the data to a new volume on Server B. I went to a third server (C) and changed the nodename in the dsm.opt file to that of the crashed server. I then set up access to server A (now server C) from server B and was able to do a restore from the command line on server C as follows:



dsmc res -fromnode Server_A Server_A\Target_Volume:/* Server_B\Destination_Volume:
