My tsm server keeps crashing on windows during its start up below is the output. Anytime i start it up it continues to try to initialize the drive and fails once it fails it crashes. I have tried the san discovery off, I have tried editing the devconf and commenting out the reference and it still tries to load it. I have tried to remove it from the registry but TSM still tries to this drive. According to ibm i just need to run the update drive command and/or delete the path and recreate it but TSM crashes before i can even get to a prompt. There has to be a way to load the server in read write without any devices loading, i just don't know how to do it.
