Testing recently I have found that (at least in our environment) bare-metal
restore for Win2K is very sensitive to the combination of client & server
levels we are running.
The basic instructions are in the recently-published REDBOOK "Deploying the
Tivoli Storage Manager Client in a WIn2K Environment" SG24-6141. You can
download it in .pdf format from www.redbooks.ibm.com, search on the book#.
I have posted my instructions that Ray mentioned, plus some updates (as of
today) from recent testing with later client releases to
www.coderelief.com. Click the button for Scripts&Links, then click the link
to TSM SCRIPTS, look for the topic Disaster Recovery.

Volker,
Here is a link to a posting by Wanda Prather to this list made about a
year ago. It describes a manual process of doing a Bare Metal Restore
for Win2k Professional:

The Kernel Group has a commercial product called Bare Metal Restore that
completely automates the recovery of a system using the data from TSM.
The current release works for AIX, Solaris, HP-UX, and NT. Windows
2000 server is currently in Beta and should be released in mid
September. Here is a link to TKG's BMR:
