>From what I remember you need to start SQL in single user mode (from DOS cmd line), then restore master with TDP. Then restart in normal mode and restore the other databases with TDP.

I´m already use the TDP for backup the data in the databas. But to recovery the databas from a disaster do I need to restore the master.mdf before I use the TDP. So I just wonder how I can backup the master.mdf. Do I realy need to use a open file manager? And is the master.mdf syncronized to another files? If I don´t backup that file(s). And the server going down some how. I need to reinstall the SQL software and the service pack. That takes to long time and everyone don´t writeing down what they have done with the SQL Software. So we realy need a Bare Metal solution for it. And I think I got a plan. But I just need answer on my questions.

I got just a prodject on my desk who says that I need to found a good disaster recovery solution for Microsoft SQL 2000. And I know how to get back the system in 5 min. But I still don´t know how to get back the SQL server with out any installation CDs. I have come so far so I backup all the program files but I still have problem to backup master.mdf. So I got two questions. Do anyone know if master.mdf need to be syncronize to another files? And do master.mdf need to backup with a Open File Manager or can TSM take a backup of that file with out any Open File Manager?
