If your database files are still good then do a DSMSERV DUMPDB.  Then
you'll need to run DSMSERV LOADFORMAT followed by DSMSERV LOADDB.  Your
server will startup fine after that with no data loss.  The dump and load
will be very fast if you have enough disk space and can do it to a file
devclass.  You will have to add a definition for a file devclass to your
devconfig file if one doesn't exist in there already.

I shut my TSM Server down in order to take a backup of it.
When bringing it back up I noted that the log files had been deleted (jr
sys admin)
I recreated the log files with dsmfmt and dsmserv format and am now
trying to get tsm to run again and it says no checkpoint information can
be found. The Database files are all there and intact and log mode was
not set to roll forward.
Has anyone experienced this and what is the likeliness that I will have
to restore my Database (backup DB) to get back up and running?

Chances are the file   dsmserv.dsk is/was missing or was rebuilt. It's in
the server/bin directory, it's a text file, make sure it has the full path
to each log and db file.

Then start the TSM server.
