Try restoring the backup with a point in time restore off of a dbs
(database snapshot) or full. I believe that's what the problem is. If you
need to know what time and date to use because TSM is specific just look in
you: "/usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/volhist" file for the last database backup
tape made should be the last line of the file depending on when this TSM
database backup was made. Oh yeah set to rollforward mode when you bring it
back up it would be in your best interest to undo unwanted changes. But
becareful the recovery log could be in jepordy watch it closely (just some
pointers) Thanks!.

Hi *SM'ers

Due to a severe SSA crash problem where several of our disks crashed, I
have to rebuild our TSM server, but when issuing the "restore db" command,
I get the following output :

ANR7800I DSMSERV generated at 18:02:11 on Jun 19 2000.

ANR0306I Recovery log volume mount in progress.
ANR4611E Unable to restore database and roll forward updates - log mode was

Could anybody clarify this situation, and tell me what to do ?
Many thanks in advance !

Arnaud
