Hi Wanda,

Yes, if you are seeing "BackQueryGrps", then I think we have a match. It should 
eventually work (if the query finishes before it hits one of the TSM Server 
timeouts), but you will find that once you have the APAR applied, the queries 
will go much much faster. The problem compounds if you lots of incremental 
backups.


To tell DP/Exchange that you want an older backup...

Click on "Show Filter Options", "Add Row", pull down "Column Name" and choose 
"Backup Date".
You can then fill in the operator and Value fields to fit your needs.

This is different than the old GUI interface used to be but it was modified to 
be a standard Windows "MMC-type"
filter interface. If you prefer command-line interfaces, you can also do it 
using the "TDPEXCC RESTOREMailbox" command and specifying the 
"/MAILBOXRESTOREDAte=restore-date" option.


Thanks,

Del
