HI,

you have to go throught 2 step procedure of importing backup images (1st:
recreate catalog enteriens for the backups on your media; 2nd: import
backups from the media). See man bpimport or System Admin Guide - importing
Backup Images.

Be carefull if backups on your media are fragmented and continues on another
media.
