IBM Tivoli Storage Manager V6.3 Fix Pack 6 (6.3.6.000) Server Downloads
APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
For ANR4596E message, the following user response is documented: "This is likely caused by not having all the necessary volumes available and specified in the volume history file. Or this is caused by having the wrong volume designated with sequence 10001. If a volume in the volume history file for this backup series and operation is assigned 10001, try assigning a different volume as sequence 10001. The volume assigned sequence 10001 is expected to have the self-describing validation information and signatures that are used by the restore processing for validation of a given operation for a backup series. If this information is not found or correct, this would result in a restore failure." The symptom, however, could also be caused by an attempt to restore a server database backed by a lower release level server. As an example, you will see the ANR4596E if you try to restore a V6.2 database using a V6.3 Tivoli Storage Manager server. Tivoli Storage Manager Versions Affected: all supported Initial Impact: Medium Additional Keywords: RESTORE DB validate selected backup series
Local fix
restore the database using the same server release version used for the backup

Problem conclusion
In the Administrator's Reference, the section pertaining to the DSMSERV RESTORE DB and BACKUP DB commands will be updated with the following note: "Restriction: You cannot restore a server database if the release level of the server database backup is different from the release level of the server that is being restored." Update message ANR4596E ANR4596E The restore database operation is unable to validate the selected database backup for series <seriesID> and operation <operationID> against the actual data from the database backup stream. explanation When the DSMSERV RESTORE DB command selects a candidate database backup series, it will validate the information from the backup data stream and compare it to the information available from the volume history file. In this case, the database backup is missing information that is needed in order to perform a restore of the server database. sysact None uresp This error can be caused by one of the following conditions: 1. All of the necessary volumes are not available and specified in the volume history file. 2. The release level of the server database backup is different from the release level of the server that is being restored. For example, error ANR4596E will occur when you restore a V6.2 database and you are using a V6.3 Tivoli Storage Manager server. 3. You have the wrong volume that is designated with sequence 10001. If a volume in the volume history file for this backup series and operation is assigned 10001, try assigning a different volume as sequence 10001. The volume assigned sequence 10001 is expected to have the self-describing validation information and signatures that are used by the restore process for the validation of an operation for a backup series. The restore will fail if this information is not found or is incorrect. Affected platforms: AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, Linux, and Windows.
