Hi TSMers Running TSM 3.7.3.8 on Solaris 2.7 attached to two 3590 drives housed in a 3494 automated library.
This is not something I am having to do at the moment, but something that I want to get clear in case the need arrises. Let's assume the database is corrupt and I cannot sign on to the TSM server. I need to issue the dsmc restore db from the command line. Baring in mind the device configuration below, what is the correct syntax I should use? Also, what does the commit=yes/no option mean? The reason I ask, is that I'm not sure If I need to manually change the state of the drive to manual or something before issuing the command. This may be a bit vague, and if so please let me know any other information you require. Thanks ever so much in advance.
