The manual is indeed incorrect.  Use preview=yes.

OK, guys and gals. Need some assistance, especially since I did RTFM and
the book is in error.

I have a damaged tape. I went to the TSM manual (even checked the latest
CD I received with my 4.2 server) under:

Recovering a Lost or Damaged Storage Pool Volume

It says to:

1. Determine the copy pool volumes that contain the backup copies of the
files that were stored on the volume that was destroyed by entering:

   restore volume dsm087 preview=volumesonly

This command produces a list of offsite volumes that contain the backed up
copies of the files that were on tape volume DSM087.

Well, every time I issue this command (using my tape number, of course), I
get:

F ADSM,RESTORE VOLUME 040287 PREVIEW=VOLUMESONLY
ANR5965I Console command:  RESTORE VOLUME 040287 PREVIEW=VOLUMESONLY
ANR2017I Administrator SERVER_CONSOLE issued command: RESTORE VOLUME
040287 PREVIEW=VOLUMESONLY
ANR2020E RESTORE VOLUME: Invalid parameter - VOLUMESONLY.


What gives ?

What is the correct procedure to handle this situation ?

Dear Mr. Forray:

Thank you for posting your TSM question to the Marist Forum.  We have
investigated, and there was indeed a mistake in one of the parameters in
the Administrator's Guide.  We have fixed this for the next release of
Tivoli Storage Manager.

The correct command is:  restore volume dsm087 preview=yes

We hope you were able to resolve the problem.  Thank you for your continued
interest in TSM.

Liudyte,

To get the list of the copypool tapes, use preview=yes. When you are ready
to restore the volume use preview=NO.

Re: Recovering a damaged volume

2002-02-05 Thread Michael Bartl

Liudyte,
I think the right value for the preview option is simply "yes".

Try "restore volume 040287 preview=yes"

Good luck,

Michael

OK, guys and gals. Need some assistance, especially since I did RTFM and
the book is in error.

I have a damaged tape. I went to the TSM manual (even checked the latest
CD I received with my 4.2 server) under:

Recovering a Lost or Damaged Storage Pool Volume

It says to:

1. Determine the copy pool volumes that contain the backup copies of the
files that were stored on the volume that was destroyed by entering:

   restore volume dsm087 preview=volumesonly

This command produces a list of offsite volumes that contain the backed up
copies of the files that were on tape volume DSM087.

Well, every time I issue this command (using my tape number, of course), I
get:

F ADSM,RESTORE VOLUME 040287 PREVIEW=VOLUMESONLY
ANR5965I Console command:  RESTORE VOLUME 040287 PREVIEW=VOLUMESONLY
ANR2017I Administrator SERVER_CONSOLE issued command: RESTORE VOLUME
040287 PREVIEW=VOLUMESONLY
ANR2020E RESTORE VOLUME: Invalid parameter - VOLUMESONLY.


What gives ?

What is the correct procedure to handle this situation ?
