Restore the TSM backup/restore environment at the disaster recovery site.
The controller part and the drive part of the ETERNUS tape library unit at the disaster recovery site must be recognized (create /dev/rmt/*st and /dev/rmt/*lb files).
Refer to "Setting the ETERNUS tape library driver" of the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager Installation Guide" for details.
The devconfig file restored as described in Item 1 of "14.7.2 Preparing TSM management information" will be used in the TSM database restoration process.
The contents, therefore, must be edited to match the configuration of the ETERNUS tape library used at the disaster recovery site.
Note
Do not change areas other than shaded or boxed areas of each command.
The details of changes are as followed.
Changing the library definition
Change the library type of the DEFINE LIBRARY command from SCSI to MANUAL, and delete operands that come after the LIBTYPE operand.
The library name of this command may not be changed.
Delete the DEFINE PATH command where DESTTYPE=LIBRARY is specified.
Subsequent to the above actions, the library control function may not be used during the restoration process of the TSM database.
Figure 14.4 Example of editing the devconfig file at the operation site
Changing the drive definition
Change the DEFINE DRIVE and DEFINE PATH commands defined in this file to that applicable to a single drive unit.
Even if the ETERNUS tape library is a model with multiple drive units, this drive unit definition must be set as a single unit.
Do not change the library name and drive name.
Delete the operands that come after the drive name parameters in the DEFINE DRIVE command.
In the device parameter of the DEFINE PATH command, define the device file of the drive unit connected to the tape server of the disaster recovery site that was recognized as described in "14.7.3 Restoring the TSM backup environment".
Figure 14.5 Example of editing the devconfig file at the operation site
Deleting library inventory information
Delete the library inventory information (storage volume information) defined in this file.
Figure 14.6 Example of editing the devconfig file at the operation site
An example of the change is described below.
Example:
ETERNUS tape library used at the operation site
Library unit type: ETERNUS LT270
Drive model: LTO G3
Number of drive units : 2
ETERNUS tape library connected to the disaster recovery site
Library unit type: ETERNUS LT130
Drive model: LTO G2
Number of drive units: 2
An example of changing the devconfig file in this instance is described below.

The following section explains the procedures for restoring data in the TSM database, that were backed up to tapes, to the TSM database and the log files as described in "Formatting database and log files" in the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager Installation Guide".
Restoration processing of a TSM database must be executed using the latest backup tapes first.
Point
The panel operations for these procedures are different for different ETERNUS tape library. Refer to the relevant unit manuals for details.
Insert TSM database backup tapes into the drive unit
Insert the backup tapes created as described in Item 2 of "14.5.2 Tasks after ACM backup operation" into the drive unit (making sure the unit has been defined in the devconfig file as described in "14.7.3.1 Editing the devconfig file") via the loading point (CAS) operating the panel of the ETERNUS tape library.
Restoring TSM database
Restore TSM database data from the tapes inserted into the drive unit.
# cd /opt/Tivoli/tsm/server/bin # ./dsmserv restore db devclass=<Device class name> volumenames=<Volume name> commit=yes |
Device class name
Specify the device class that corresponds to the ETERNUS tape library as defined in the DEFINE DEVCLASS command of the devconfig file that was edited as described in "14.7.3.1 Editing the devconfig file".
Volume name
Specify the volume name of the tape inserted into the drive.
For details of the dsmserv restore db command, refer to "DSMSERV RESTGORE DB (Restore database)" in "IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Utility" of the "ETERNUS SF TSM Administrator's Handbook".
Example:
Device class name: DRIVERCLASS1
Volume name: LTO005
# cd /opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin # ./dsmserv restore db devclass=DRIVECLASS1 volumenames=LTO005 commit=yes |
Retrieve the tapes loaded onto the drive unit
Move the tape loaded onto the drive unit to the unloading point (CAS) by operating the ETERNUS tape library panel, and remove it.
Start the TSM server, and make the following settings.
Starting daemons on the TSM server
Start daemons on the TSM server by executing the /etc/init.d/initTSM file set as described in Item 7 "Set daemon automatic start" of "14.7.1.2 Customizing Tape Manager".
# /etc/init.d/initTSM start |
Starting the TSM management client
Start the TSM management client to update tape library information.

Updating a device class
The device class defined previously relates to the tape library information at the operation site. This must be updated to match the ETERNUS tape library information newly defined for the disaster recovery site.
Execute this process for all the device classes displaying "LT0" in the "Unit Type" column of the QUERY DEVCLASS F=D command.
For details of the QUERY DEVCLASS command, refer to the explanation in "ETERNUS SF TSM Administrator's Handbook".

Establishing a TSM client session
Prepare to start a session between the TSM server and the client.
Start and stop the TSM client using the TSM client node specified in the nodename option of the/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.sys file and the password corresponding to that TSM client node.
This process is executed in order to have TSM remember the password used in sessions between the TSM server and the client using the relevant TSM client node.
This task must be performed while the TSM server daemons are active.
