Paolo: If you can't get windows to boot, have you tried a parallel installation? If you can get a second instance of Windows to boot, then you may be able to save your disk storage pool.

Hi guru This is my scenario: TSM server (v4.2.1.9) on windows 2000. In the drive C:, I have installed the operative system and a disk storage pool (called DIRECTORY) reserved for the path information (via DIRMC DIRECTORY client option) and the sql meta data (via include/exclude option INCLUDE *:\ \meta\ \* DIRECTORY). The real data are on the tape storage pool. I have also the backup of the TSM DB on the tape. In the drive D:, I have put the TSM DB e TSM recovery log. This is the problem: windows 2000 doesn t boot!! If I reinstalled the operative system on the drive C:, I would loose DIRECTORY storage pool. What will it happen after restoring the TSM DB from a backup? I will access the data on the tape storage pool, but this data will be incomplete without the DIRECTORY storage pool. Thanks a lot.
