What is your dbbufpoolsize and logpoolsize? When these values
are large, it takes a while for the dsmserv process to claim all that RAM.
If it does eventually come up, then you can try changing this value to a
lower amount and see if it comes up quicker.
As far as formating the recovery log. It's been my experience that this can
be a slow process during a database restore. What you can do, is format a
small 50 meg recovery log, restore the database. Then when you bring up
the server define your other recovery log volumes. Might speed up your
database restore procedure.
