If you have the DS (the actual DB) backed up you can restore it to one of the existing machines. There is an article on Citrix's website on how to fail from one server to another using an Access DB. I would do that (since you cant build another server in the farm until the DS is back up) then rebuild your ds server and join the farm. Then during off hours fail the servers back (following those same steps from the article) to the new DS server.

I have 3 other servers as part of the farm. I was mainly using the Data Store for licensing purposes ( No published apps.) My understanding is that I can work without a Data store for 48 hours, right? If I cannot get the DS server to come up, I'll need to set up another server as a DS server. What are my choices? I have DS backup.
