Restoring Your Server Using Mirrored Volumes

If a mirrored volume fails due to media failure, you can restore the volume by taking the following steps:

  1. View the status of the database and recovery log volumes by using QUERY DBVOLUME or QUERY LOGVOLUME commands.
  2. If necessary, place the failing volume offline from TSM by using DELETE DBVOLUME or DELETE LOGVOLUME commands. The server usually does this automatically.
  3. Fix the failing physical device.
  4. Allocate space to be used for a new volume by using the DSMFMT utility.
  5. Bring the volume online by using DEFINE DBCOPY or DEFINE LOGCOPY commands.

After a database or recovery log volume copy is defined, the server synchronizes the volume copy with its associated database or recovery log volume.
