We got it working. We were getting a sql error 2033 with a return code of 50. To resolve I did exactly what I list below.
I'd be curious about about how others setup a DR server. A DR server being a AIX system at a 2nd datacenter configured ready to have a restore run. In our case, the db backup, recplan, and other pieces/parts is saved to a DataDomain that replicates to the 2nd datacenter. Here is how I've been setting up a DR server: - config AIX just like prod (storage, users, sftw(tsm, other)) - create a NEW/Clean TSM instance via dsmicftgx that is just like the prod instance - run a "dsmserv removed tsmdb1" - run a /opt/Tivoli/tsm/db2/instance/db2iset -d <instance_owner> It's all ready now to unpack the recplan and perform a restore. (I call this "priming" the DR server.) I'd be interested in thoughts/comments and what you do.

The PROD server is TSM v6.3.5 but the BA client is v7.1.4. The DR serve is the same, TSM v6.3.5 with BA client v7.1.4. Is this allowed? Doesn't the API client have to match the TSM server level?
