It sounds like you did not initialize the database and logs.  Check the
command dsmserv format" .

The errors you cite appear to come from the existence of an old
dsmserv.dsk file which points to your old log and database volumes.

cannot restore tsm database (dsmserve restore db)!!! Please Help!!!!!
[Virus checked]






Hi,

I have a great problem to restore my TSM Database. Server runs on AIX
5.2_ML02 and TSM Server Version 5.1.8
I stop the server, so I have a consitent status.

After the server stop I lost the disks where are my db-logs (hardware).
Now
I change the disks and recreate the db-log files with dsmfmt -log path
size
But I cannot start the server. I think this is o.k. because the logs are
new and empty. So I start a

dsmserv restore db
and get the following errors:

# dsmserv restore db preview=yes
