Hi all
Thanks for all the help on this. In the end I simply installed a TSM client
on the new machine and, as below, used the dsmc -virtualnodename=FRED. And
that was all it took, I could then restore files from the data backed up
for FRED to the new node. Much easier than I has expected.
Thanks again for all the posts regarding this.
All the best

Farren,
try
dsmc -virtualnodename=FRED on a different machine with the same ( or higher
) TSM client installed.
btw: be carefull not to loos your backupdata of FRED ( due to RETONLY
Version retention parameter )

Subject: Restoring files from one client to another
Hi TSMers
Until recently we have been backing up a machine that we'll call FRED. The
applications on that machine has been slowly migrated to another box and we
have been able to re-use FRED for another purpose. However, we are keeping
the data that has been backed up for Fred in case the origional box needs
to be re-built or the data is required.
Here is my question.
Baring in mind that the machine FRED no longer exists. is there a way to
restore files backed up from Fred to another client node should the need
arrise.
We are running TSM server 3.7.3.8 on a Sun Solaris 2.7 machine. Clients in
question are all 3.7.2.0.
Many thanks in advance for any help given
