Hi Richards,
yes that was the one thing  the app and app both are same on both the boxes ,
but corrected and tried again.
second thing i dont have any archives , and i am  trying to retrieve , so the
error was correct.  now
i will do archiveing first than , retrieve . meanwhile if i want to restore  ,
what would be the command syntax .
in place  of      dsmc  ret       so ret will be replaced by res  ? or what ?

Thank you very much .

In one case you have "/ora01/apps" and the other "/ora01/app" so we
wonder which is the correct name.

I'd recommend you start out doing a cross-client Query Archive first,
before you do the Retrieve.

I'd also recommend that you refer to the B/A Client manual discussion
of "Restore or Retrieve Files to Another Workstation".
