Re: Windows TSM server Crash
Hi, If your ITSM server is running, give it the Prepare command (help prepare). This will give you all the info you need to recover your server. Some basic steps - Install OS; - Install ITSM server (level at least same as before); - Configure / Format DB en Logs. Size is as before or bigger; - Configure devices; - Configure (restore volhist) - RESTORE your ITSM database from last Full and Incremental DB back volumes. It isn't the complete work, some steps.

Re: Windows TSM server Crash
The chapter I pointed you to the other day includes information on restoring the TSM server. My recommendation would be to: 1) Read the chapter I mentioned. Section "Recovering Your Server Using Database and Storage Pool Backups" covers the restore scenario, but the entire chapter is worth reading to understand your options for protecting the server as well. 2) Attempt the restore per the info in the book. 3) If you continue to have trouble, post the *exact* steps you took, as well as the results that demonstrate the problem you are having. That will give list members a lot more info to help you with.

The point I was making is that you really should have had a DR drill, prior to your actual disaster. If you had, you would now have documentation telling everything you need to do, step by step.

Re: Windows TSM server Crash
Thanks Mark ... That is exactly what I'm doing now ... in my lab I still don't know where to start ... my TSM server is down, I formatted it ... installed win2k OS ... Now .. what are the steps ... re-install TSM server, I dont have a clue .. I tested (and documented) windows server restore, SQL servers DB restore ... Domain controller restore ...
