HP Reference Information Storage System Version 1.6 Administration Guide revision 2 (T3559-90809, September 2007)

Before you continue, m ake sure that you have the two volumes that contain the storage pool and
database backup, and the recovery plan fi le.
1. Reinstall the backup server.
Use the backup server installation media to reinstall the o perating system and Tivoli Storage
Manager software as described in the RISS Installation G uide in “O ptional backup server.” (Your
HP service representative has this do cument.) Perform all of the steps to create a working, fresh
installation of the TSM server.
NOTE:
When installing the new backup server do not use the commands /usr/local/
tsmBackup/configTiv init|del.
2. Recover the server.
a. Copy the recovery plan fi le back to the backup server, into the director y:c:\tsmbackup.
b. Connect to the backup server through VNC and open a command prompt.
c. Run the following command to split the recovery plan file into instructions, command files and
TSM macros. (Replace <recoveryPlanFile.txt> with the actual file name.)
C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\server>cscript planexpl.vbs
c:\tsmbackup\<recoveryPlanFile.txt>
d. Familiarize yourself with the files that were created.
e. Place the two volumes with the backup data, TAPE.3 and 2 (note the order), in the library.
f. Add or modify the following two comments in the file RECPLAN.DEVICE.CONFIGURA-
TION.FILE,sothatTSMcanfind the backup media for restoring the database. (See the
TSM Administrator’s G uide, “Automated SCSI Library at the Original a nd Recovery Sites,”
page 788.):
/* LIBRARYINVENTORY SCSI LIB.TAPE TAPE.3 11 102*/
/* LIBRARYINVENTORY SCSI LIB.TAPE TAPE.2 12 102*/
g. Stop the TSM server by using the TSM Management Console.
Expand the tree: TSM > TSM Server1 > Reports > Service Information.
h. Right-click the ser vice name, and select Stop.
i. Open a command prompt, change to the directory c:\tsmbackup, and run:
RECPLAN.RECOVERY.SCRIPT.DISASTER.RECOVERY.MODE.CMD
This restores the database from the tape and starts the server in a new window. It also registers
the licenses and marks as destroyed the volumes that remain on the server.
j. Run the following command to ensure that the TSM database is consistent with the librar y
volumes:
INTERNAL>audit library LIB.TAPE command
k. Check in and label two empty volumes, which will be used to restore the storage pools.
See "Adding and labeling new media (command line)" on page 104.
l. To restore the storage pool, run the command:
RECPLAN.RECOVERY.SCRIPT.NORMAL.MODE.CMD
m. Return the volumes that were used to restore the database and storage po ol by issuing the
following commands:
tsm: INTERNAL>update volhist TAPE.3 devcl=DC.TAPE ormstate=mount-
