I ran into this a few weeks ago. I had to format the log and DB volumes before the restore would work. Something like:
dsmserv format numberoflogfiles logfilenames numberofdbvolumes dbvolnames ie dsmserv format 1 /adsmlog/log1 1 /adsmdb/db1 You only need to do the prime volumes, not the mirrors. Once it formats, run the restore command again.

I installed TSM onto the DR box, copied the DEVCFG.OUT and VOLHIST.OUT files into the directory where the new server was built. When I try to restore the database I get the following error. Any idea where I am going wrong? ANR0900I Processing options file c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\server1\dsmserv.o- pt. ANR7800I DSMSERV generated at 09:58:50 on Jun 13 2003.
