Hi Phil,
 
Once your have marked your lost onsite tapes as "destroyed" then the ADSM db will automatically use the other copies of the files that you have stored in your copy storage pools(Offsite). If your offsite tapes have been "checked in" to a tape library and their access changed from offsite to say; readonly then ADSM will just use them.
 
So the sequence is:
 
Install ADSM binaries
Create Db volumes
Put back config files (volhist etc...)
Restore ADSM db
Mark onsite volume = destroyed
Restore other lost client servers
 
One key point:
If you have a large number of offsite tapes it pays to consider what tape device you will require in a DR situation. You can, in theory use a single tape drive but ideally you would like a library that will hold all of your current offsite tapes. Otherwise you will have a fair amount of manual intervention required to swap tapes in/out DURING client restores.
