The filenames are truncated by default on Netware (ADSM client version
3.1.0.6). We don't use the MEMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP option. Default is no.
I didn't specify -LATEST as an option so it should just restore the active
files which is what I want.

where did I put my lava lamp? Must be in the box with my polyester shirts
and bell bottom pants.

        Could it be that your client has MEMMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP=YES and the
        filenames have been truncated?  Or that you are restoring  all
versions of
        each file? (Just some thoughts)

        Oh yeah, when you get tired of staring RCONSOLE, try a Lava Lamp....

        Ok, I've done quite a few full Netware restores and I have noticed
that when
        I restore an entire volume, (the volume is empty when I start), I
get
        messages that state that the file already exists and it is skipping.
Now I
        don't mean the files that are created when the volume and name space
support
        are installed. I'm talking data files several directories down. We
haven't
        noticed any problems with the restores but how can this happen?

        Anyone? Not worried, just perplexed as I stare at RCONSOLE. :- 0
