I would say restore your secondary machine from a mksysb image of your initial machine, then MAKE SURE AND ACTIVATE ASYNC I/O because that won't be restored with the mksysb... then the drm file pretty much works like a charm.

With V6, and DB2, this has become a little harder. I have tried to devise my own process, but I have run into a permission problem. When I try to start TSM, I get "ANR0186E There is insufficient authority to start the database manager". From DB2, if I try to start DB2, I get "SQL1092N "TSMCABW1" does not have the authority to perform the requested command or operation.". I am trying to restore the other machines DB, so it doesn't seem like it should be able to be started anyway. Any ideas on what I can do, or does someone have a procedure I can follow? Thanks.
