Restore backup using TSM to a HP-UX 11.23 box

How to restore backup using TSM to a new disk installed in a HP UX box (11.23).

 

1)    Insert the New Disk into the server.

2)    Verify whether that newly installed disk is detected or NOT (using SAM)

 

Disk Devices                                                  0 of 13 selected│

││ 10/0.2.0      1          LVM        vg05         8683   SEAGATE XXXXXXXX 

 

Issuing the ioscan and diskinfo command we can find the disk details :

 

IOSCAN #

Class     I  H/W Path     Driver      S/W State H/W Type  Description

=================================================================

disk     11  10/0.1.0     sdisk       CLAIMED   DEVICE    SEAGATE XXXXXXXX

                         /dev/dsk/c0t1d0   /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0

 

DISKINFO#

SCSI describe of /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0:

             vendor: SEAGATE

         product id: XXXXXXX

               type: direct access

               size: 17783240 Kbytes

   bytes per sector: 512

 

            We can also find the disk status viewing the timestamp of it in the /dev/rdsk directory :

HPUX (root):/dev/rdsk:# ls -l

total 0

crw-r-----   1 bin        sys        188 0x001000 Apr  6 10:54 c0t1d0

 

3)      Restore the vg configuration using below commands

  1. pvcreate -f /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0 - pvcreate new disk
  2. vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vg07 /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0 - restores vg configuration to the new disk
  3. vgchange -a y /dev/vg07 - reactivates VG07
  4. vgsync vg07 - Syncs VG07
  5. newfs -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vg07/rlvol1 – Creating vxfs filesystem

 

4)  Now mount the filesystem by issuing mount –a command (if we have already an entry in /etc/fstab) or manually giving the command

mount -F vxfs /dev/vg07/lvol1 /MOUNTPOINT

 

5)      Check whether the /MOUNTPOINT is visible in bdf command or not

 

HPUX(root):/:# bdf /backup

Filesystem          kbytes    used   avail %used Mounted on

/dev/vg07/lvol1    10240000    3614 9596619    0% /backup

 

6)      Now we can start up the procedure for restoring data of /MOUNTPOINT using TSM. Firstly after logging in ROOT issue the command “dsmc” (Before doing this check whether TSM client is installed or not.)

7)  Issue the commands below one by one :

 

  • Dsmc> q ba "/MOUNTPOINT/" -su=yes (checking backup status)
