No problem.
You will need to properly define the drive in your device config file (as
specified in your dsmserv.opt file) as a manual library with one drive in
it. And after the restore, you'll need to delete the drives and library from
the new TSM server instance and re-define your manual configuration again.
TSM will use the device config file if the database isn't available, but it
will revert to the database definition one you've finished the restore.
At one time we had a 9-tape STK 9710 library in-house and 6 stand-alone DLT
drives in our D/R contract -- so at D/R we had a manual library with six
drives defined in it. Works like a charm!

Hi,
TSM 4.1.4 on AIX 4.3.3
Can anyone verify this for me:
If I create a db backup tape in a multi-tapes DLT library from one system,
can I
eject this tape and try to restore the database into another system which
has
only a single DLT drive attached to it?
I was told that I could only do the restore using the same multi-tape DLT
library. I am not sure if this is true because I have never gone through
this step.
Thank you.
