ANR0259E-Unable to read complete restart/checkpoint TSM Server won't start
| |||||
| Cause | |||||
| Reasons: 1) The DB and or Recovery Log volumes have not been initialized via the DSMSERV FORMAT command in the case of new/first time volume usage. 2) The DSMSERV.DSK file is pointing to an incorrect path, volume or has a typographical error. 3) The disk volumes are unavailable/off-line 4) The volumes don't exist The ANR0259E error message is occurring because the startup process is not able to find/determine the starting point/position of either a DB or Recovery log volume. This was seen in a case where a shark disk array had failed, new volumes having new names were defined for use and a DSMFMT had been performed. The DSMSERV.DSK file had been updated with the correct information. The TSM server would not start as the new volumes had not been initialized for TSM Usage via the DSMSERV FORMAT command. | |||||
| Resolving the problem | |||||
| Verify path and volume names are correct. Verify disk volumes are available. Initialize new volumes with the DSMSERV FORMAT command. Note: The DSMSERV FORMAT command is destructive in that it will clear/overwrite any data in the DB or Recovery Log volume being formatted. |
