Error description

  • Mirrorlogfiles may not be copied while TSM Server starting.
    The problem occurs after we make Point in Time restore.
    
    You will see the symptom in the following steps:
    ----------------------------------------
    1) Configure TSM Server environment with adding mirrorlogdir
    entry in dsmserv.opt.
    2) Remove TSMDB1 DB:
    "dsmserv removedb TSMDB1"
    3) Make a PIT restore:
    For example "dsmserv restore db todate=today totime=now"
    4) Start dsmserv.
    ----------------------------------------
    
    Then, you can see that activelogfiles are not copied to
    mirrorlogdir
    though there is a mirrorlogdir entry in dsmserv.opt.
    
    
    Customer/L2 Diagnostics:
    ----------------------------------------
    Result of "db2 get db cfg for TSMDB1" shows the following
    result:
    (MIRRORLOGPATH) = <mirrorlogdir>/NODE0000/
    
    However, there is not NODE0000 directory under <mirrorlogdir>
    after PIT restore.
    
    db2diag.log will show the following record:
