AIX 5.2 TSM 5.1.8.0 Database crashed - Recovery log maxed out and full (over 12 MB - can't extend). While working with support, attempted to create a second log and now get: ANR0259E-unable to read complete restart/checkpoint information from any database or recovery log volume I have about 500 pages of instructions from support for both correcting the ANR0259E error and THEN, restoring the database. I need someone to help me sort through this and simplify because frankly, I am very nervous about proceeding. Our log was in rollforward mode and we are mirroring our database. Among my questions: Do I use dsmfmt, dsmserv format or dsmserv loadformat to reformat these volumes to address the ANR0259E issue? Also, when I do reformat, do I include the mirrored database volume and while were on the subject, does the mirrored db volume do me any good as far as providing a restore opportunity? Any assistance would be appreciated. Please let me know if I need to provide more info. Thanks, Kelli Jones Chesterfield County, VA 804-748-1951
