The chapter I pointed you to the other day includes information on restoring the TSM server. My recommendation would be to:
1) Read the chapter I mentioned. Section "Recovering Your Server Using Database and Storage Pool Backups" covers the restore scenario, but the entire chapter is worth reading to understand your options for protecting the server as well. 2) Attempt the restore per the info in the book. 3) If you continue to have trouble, post the *exact* steps you took, as well as the results that demonstrate the problem you are having. That will give list members a lot more info to help you with.
