Hi,

We're experiencing the following errors when trying to restore an Oracle
7.3.4 database using EBU 2.2.0.5.0. The OS is AIX 4.2.0.0 and the data
is in ADSM in an 3494 tape library.

EBU starts ok, and collects the list of files to restore from the EBU
catalog, but fails when it starts the restore to disk.

The restore fails without making any contact with the ADSM server.
"netstat -a" shows no connections from the client to the ADSM server.

I'm able to connect to the ADSM server via "dsmc" on the same node with
similar dsm.sys & dsm.opt files.
