From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Rob Schroeder >I've never found that document of one exists. \eep in mind, gentlemen, that TSM does not support bare metal restores *officially*. There are those that have worked out the processes necessary to make such restores work properly. (There are some who work for my company that have done so.) The basic thing to remember is that you cannot restore system objects while the system objects are being used. You must build the initial OS (with their system objects) in a non-default directory, restore the files and original system objects from TSM, swap some files from point A to point B, and reboot. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Certified TSM consultant Certified AIX system engineer MCSE
