Thanks Bill. AIX. I would not be interested in running multiple instances on the server. The context is SiteB is a DR instance, just standby. Since the DB normally does not contain data, it is not backed up. Once put into use, it contains the data from its use as a DR box. I suppose it would not be too time consuming to reinstall, but was wondering if someone has a method of generating a new database on an existing server. ----- Original Message ----- From: "William Boyer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2007 10:01 AM Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] creating a fresh TSM database instance
Windows or Unix? Windows is easy...just use the TSM Management Console application, Right click on your computername under the Tivoli Storage Manager and select Add a new TSM Server... Very wizard based to create another instance. For the Unix's, there's a section in the Admin Guide for "Running multiple servers on a single machine". Bill Boyer "A life? Cool! Where can I download one of those?" - ?? -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Larry Clark Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2007 8:33 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: creating a fresh TSM database instance The TSM Server in SiteA was lost and recovered to a server at SiteB. Subsequently it was restored to SiteA. Question: is there a method to generate a new TSM database instance without removing and reinstalling TSM at SiteB?
