(tsm server activity log) from the tsm server type in:
q actlog begind=today begint=half_hour_before_backup (ex: 03:00:00).
endt=now endd=today > file
then send me file in an attachement. Better yet get familar with it and do
a "h q actlog" from TSM to see how to use it. It's a log of all TSM server
events. It's very useful in debuging these type of issues. One more thing
also go to the directory where you started this restore and send me the
"dsmerror.log" file that should be there, or whatever you naming convention
for the client error log is set to be.

What's in the ActLog? Is it looking for a tape that's unavailable? I saw
that with a user last week.
