Re: restore database operation fail

Hi Mario

I too faced similar problem.Try this and let me know it worked or not.

copy the devcnfg file to devcnfg.orig

change the library definition from scsi to manual  in devcnfg file ( def
library <libname> libtype=manual

define a single drive ( if your library has multiple drives) to the library

Load the database volume into the defined drive
Perform the restore db with the command you mentioned

After sccessfull restoration copy devcnfg.orig to devcnfg

Hope this works

========================================================================

Please notice that the library is in manual mode and the "TSM Server1"
service is stopped when I enter the restore db command.

Also, this time I used the wizards to configure the Device Driver and
there was an error message before the end of the wizard. There was no
devcnfg.out file created so I used a copy from it from the old TSM server.

Thanks.

Mario
