Re: A simple question but trouble me these days

Questions are almost always simple. It is the answers that are usually not
trivial.

The short, inferior answer to your question: use the RESTORE DB command.
However, this does not sufficiently cover the subject.

The longer (and better) answer to your question: I would *strongly*
recommend that you carefully read chapter 23 in the TSM Administrator's
Guide, "Protecting and Recovering Your Server". This chapter describes the
TSM features that enable you to protect and recover your server, and
includes recovery scenarios. Also, as the commands are discussed in the
Admin Guide, look them up in the TSM Administrator's Reference. The Admin
Reference provides syntax for the commands, but the Admin Guide provides a
context in which to use them.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
