David,
look for AUDIT VOLUME, RESTORE VOLUME and UPDATE VOLUME ACCESS=DESTROYED
commands. They can help you when the bad things already happened.
If you want to prevent or predict tape failure you can use private volumes
instead of scratch (yes, I know it's harder to maintain).
For private volume
AUDIT VOLUME helps to localize faulty files and to mark them in the
database. Afterwards you must perform RESTORE VOLUME or RESTORE STGPOOL to
bring the file back. AUD V does not perform the restore by itself but after
audit volume-by-volume you can perform one complete restore of the whole
storag
The idea behind backupset is to have all files for quick restore after a
disaster - some are calling it "bare metal" restore.
After you finish restore of files (including *SM client) you can easily
continue with raw device restore to completely restore the whole data.
*SM server is unaware of data
