Before you Start: If this is for a DR test – ensure the DR partition has no hardware errors i.e.: disks and cache batteries are operational 3 to 7 days before. ***************************** A T T E N T I O N ***************************************** These restore procedures will take several hours to complete. DO NOT cancel any step unless directed to do so by you’re a GIS Technical Representative or an IBM Technical Service Representative. ***************************************************************************** **************** You will require the following information before proceeding with the restore: o BRMS “Recovering your Entire System” Report (Latest Copy!) located at the following link (only accessible by GIS Technical Support): \\3.58.164.230\brmsreports$ o Use the BRMS Recovery Volume Summary Report to determine where the media volumes for the following reside. If they are Offsite, recall them immediately stating you are in a Disaster situation: See Business Recovery document for information on the Offsite storage vendor for your business. Most recent set of SAVSYS tapes, Most recent set of SAVLIB *IBM tapes, (If any) Most recent set of SAVLIB *NONSYS tapes, Most recent set of SAVDLO tapes, Most recent set of IFS tapes, Most recent SAVSECDTA tape, (If any) Most recent SAVCFG tape, (If any) Most recent set of daily save tapes o Disaster Recovery box GEDR#1 located offsite at Iron Mountain which contains:  IBM Software Installation manual (Doc#: SC41-5120-05)  Backup & Recovery guide (SC41-5304), Appendix A will describe the System Reference (SRC) codes that may be encountered during the restoration process;  "Practical Approach to Managing Backup Recovery and Media Services" Redbook, SG24-4840  "Automated Tape Library Planning and Management" book, SC41-5309. o Details of the Third Party Application software license keys for the DR system (See Appendix F, entitled “THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE INFORMATION”) o The IBM Licensed Internal code CD (I-BASE_01) for your system.

NOTE: If tape drive is Fiber attached you need the CD If tape drive is SCSI attached you can IPL from Tape and do not need the CD. o The Device manual for the tape device that is your alternate IPL device. It describes other SRC codes you might see. In addition, the Business Recovery document (Appendix) will contain a copy of the following documents:  DR Preparation Checklist  Offsite Storage Information  Subsystems, Output queues Active when in Production Mode & Any Special Instructions on the Business Application  Third Party software Information and contacts  IP Configuration settings  Prior Test results IMPORTANT: Before starting the restore procedure, ensure (if possible) the tape drive heads have been cleaned NOTE: If you are recovering at a DR Site, Please consult with the Vendor Representative regarding how your disk has been pre-configured on the SAN. This can affect the method and amount of time required to Zero-out the disks.

********************************************************************************* ***** NOTE: 1. Ensure your I_BASE-01 cd is loaded at this point. If tape drive is Fiber attached you need the CD. If tape drive is SCSI attached you can IPL from Tape and do not need the CD. 2. Ensure you know the bus # of the tape drive. 3. Check if the disks are RAID or Mirroring. 4. All the backups are encrypted. Please check the DR infrastructure doc for the DR site to verify that the ATL is configured properly to an EKLM server.

Step 1: Restore Licensed Internal Code START TIME: _______ ___________ Note: Service Tools user ids and authorities are not carried forward when migrating to a new machine. You must go in and reset Service Tools user ids to known GE passwords and authorities. For more details on this section, refer to the procedure for "Recovering the Licensed Internal Code" in the "Backup and Recovery" book. 1. Ensure that the power switch for the Alternate IPL (Tape) device is powered on and the device is READY. 2. If it’s a standalone drive, insert a cleaning tape into the Alternate IPL (Tape) device before proceeding. 3. Ensure that the Console display is powered on. 4. If this is an LPARed system on a i5 hardware:  Find the HMC IP address in file \\cansvr01corpge\gsdcanada_docs$\7x24 l3\Partition DR info.xls  Access the HMC through web browser using the above IP  Change the IPL setting of the partition to D M  Make sure the CD/DVD drive from the file ‘Partition DR info is on and assigned to the partition 5. Load the correct version of IBM Licensed Internal code CD (I-BASE_01) in the optical device (OPT01) if the tape drive you will be restoring from is on a Bus other than Bus 1. NOTE: If tape drive is Fiber attached you need the CD If tape drive is SCSI attached you can IPL from Tape and do not need the CD.

6. Load the most current weekly backup (SAVSYS) tapes. The Volume Id’s will be identified on the BRMS Recovering your entire system report. *VERY IMPORTANT: If you scratched the system using I_BASE_01, the First Console logon will be QSECOFR from the save tape. The second GUI logon will be the QSECOFR from the CD (password QSECOFR). Be careful as if entered incorrectly it can disable QSECOFR. If LAN console is used, it may attempt to logon once already using the PC configuration therefore you might only have 2 times to try before disabled. Note: Refer to the IBM Software Installation manual or the Backup and Recovery Guide Appendix A for System reference codes that may be encountered during the restoration process. 7.

These need to be inserted into the RSTLIB command and run for each of the Saved items. I.e.: You will run the command 5 times. Please also note the importance of the OBJECTS column. It is strongly advised that you pay close attention to the number of objects actually restored after running each command and compare it to the report. In most cases, they should match.

If access paths were not saved when the QUSRBRM library was saved, the access paths will be rebuilt when the library is restored. Verify rebuild of the access paths for files in the QUSRBRM library is complete before proceeding to the next step. To verify the rebuild, type the following command and Press Enter: EDTRBDAP

Once selected, press Enter. After all the saved items are recovered, continue with Step 14. If the save is a concurrent save, continue with item 3. 3. Pay close attention to the Volume Id’s(Volume Serial). Each time they change, they will need to be loaded in the tape drive in a READY status. Please also note the importance of the OBJECTS SAVED column. It is strongly advised that you pay close attention to the number of objects actually restored and compare it to the screen/report. In most cases, they should match. If there are discrepancies, you need to determine what/why by displaying your job log (DSPJOBLOG). 4. At the “Select Recovery Items” screen, select the items listed from the “Recovering your entire system report” with a ‘1’ and press Enter to begin restoring your IBM Product libraries.
