Hi Bill, That what I did and some how the first line that comes up was Using C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\Server1\dsmserv.opt ... ... Can not access D:\TSMServer1\DB1.dsm and so on.
I solved last night by shutdown TSM Server 1 and rename the directory to Server1 to Server1_old and rename Server2 to Server1. When in to Server1 directory and ran the same command and now did it work fine and I could recovery the TSM Server. In mean wild did I rename Server1_old directory to Server2 and ran dsmserv -k server2 and the old server started fine during the recovery of the other server. When the recovery was finish I ran dsmserv .-k server1 and the server that I just recovered did start up successfully. Strange problem and I will probably continue talking to IBM Support in UK about this and not IBM India did I talk to last night European Time.

Christian, I do this frequently and have no problem when I cd to the server2 directory and run the following: ..\server\dsmserv -k server2 restore db todate=today During the restore dsmserv uses the directory you're in to create registry entries for the paths to the instance.
