Hi Steve,

Thanks for your help !
I have a problem with your proposal to "delete contents of db, active log and archive log 
directories" : how are you doing this ? Is it just "rm -R *" in the respective 
directories ?

Cheers.

Arnaud

Hi All,


I  installed a TSM 6.2.0.0 server some times ago, where I'm now facing nasty 
IC71983 bug (slow Win2k8 system backup objects deletion).
As this server is just a test instance that I would like to have emptied, and as I would 
like to avoid to install a maintenance level just in order to be able applying some eFix, 
I thought that it would be easier to "reset" the existing server, then to 
re-inject the previously extracted server scripts into it, using macros.
Could anyone provide me a list of steps required to reset the DB on a TSM 6.2 server ? I 
do not want to change anything in the DB or LOGS layout, just have the volumes 
initialized ... I suppose that I should use the "dsmserv format" command, but 
would avoid to do mistakes in the brand new (at least for me) DB2 world
Thanks in advance for your tips !
Cheers.
Arnaud
