If you have the disk to spare, I'd also suggest using different volumes for
your old database, even if you have to cannibalize stgpool disk to do it.
It makes getting back to "today" about 3,000,002.2542 times faster (that's
an exact number).

Yep, I"ve done that.  It just takes time.
A suggestion:

When you back up the current copy of the ADSM data base, make a copy of the
DEVCONFIG and VOLHIST files somewhere OTHER than their usual locations; they
will be wiped out when you reload the backlevel DB, and you might want to
refer to them when restoring going forward again.

Thanks.
That's the answer we got from IBM as well.

IBM gave us the following plan(if we chose to implement):

1)      backup current copy of ADSM database
2)      restore old version of database
3)      get file from tapes
4)      restore today's version of ADSM database back

Thanks again for the prompt reply!

No.  To do that you would have to restore your TSM data base back to a
time
when it still contained the pointers to that tape.

....looked in archive list but did not find and answer, new to
list..........

Can we restore data from a tape that has been deleted from the ADSM
database, but we still have physical copy of?

Thanks,
Jennifer
