I've been looking for such a beast as well. There is a document for Windows (http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21164812) but none for Linux.
What we did to BMR a normal linux box is: * create a bootable linux CD (Knoppix) with a TSM client on it * boot from this cd * mount the disk drives * restore all filesystems with the TSM client * create all pseudo file systems not beeing backed up by TSM (/dev, /proc ...) on the restored disk drives * reboot HTH Thomas Rupp -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von David Browne Gesendet: Mittwoch, 13.

There was a failure of the iSCSI NAS device and the virtual image files were lost. I have started over by creating a very basic out-of-the-box Linux server (i.e. no service pack, no add-ons, etc.) I was just wondering if there are any white papers or other documents to describe the best practices for doing a restore of a Linux server via TSM?
