Re: help:server recovery

2003-07-24 Thread Pole, Stephen
I've just rethought my post of the other day, it was generally unhelpful.
Hope you have all this sorted out by the time you get this.

Unfortunately (fortunately), I have never had your problem. 

Let me know whow you get on. 

Good luck

Stephen

SV: help:server recovery

2003-07-23 Thread Christian Svensson
Hi!
I´ll don´t think it´s going to work.
Becuse the logfiles and the databas need to be syncronized.
And if someone of this is newer/older then the other then is everything
corrupt.
So to next time. Do a Databas backup and backup our Device Config files
and Volhist Files.
There is a RedBook with name Disaster Recovery Strategies with TSM
Read that one and after that you should know everything about Disaster
Recovery of a TSM Server.

Best Regard
Christian Svensson

I think it might be feasable to do a dsmformat -log for the proper file.
Then halt the server, start it up again, start praying to all the gods
in
the world that you didn't loose to much data, if the server starts at
all.
Start reading the manual about the backup db, backup devconf and backup
volhist commands. Maybe you could blame someone else for not setting up
our
server to do ferquent db backups, that might save your job...

I've never tested what might go wrong if you screw up a logvol, so I'm
not
sure this will work. If all else fails, maybe Tivoli support can help
you,
they sometimes do have tricks up their hat that you really don't want to
know about. I guess this one guy who helped us out once would at least
be in
a state of panic, this probably being a data integrity kind of
problem

2003-07-23 Thread Andrew Raibeck
If the recovery log is indeed gone and there are no backups of the 
database, then I suspect that dsmserv dumpdb/loadformat/loaddb/auditdb 
will be in order. These are described in an appendix in the 
Administrator's Reference and should be read and understood VERY CAREFULLY 
before proceeding. If there are any uncertainties, a call to IBM support 
is in order before doing anything else.

Regards,

Andy
