2. Modify the restjob.txt file to specify the current device or the slot
in which the media are currently located.
For example, if the DDS drive that had the SCSI address

restore time, the restjob.txt file should be modified accordingly:
-name LDEV
-policy 1
-type 1
-dev scsi0:0:1:0
-mahost cm.dom.com
-maid 0100007f:3a486bd7:0410:0001
-position 3:0
-daid 977824764

C:\TEMP\restjob.txt command.

If the transaction logs are not available, you can still update the IDB by
