[Veritas-bu] import
2002-03-27 09:08:52
I was very lucky; I had to create the db info using all the tapes but
the image import only required one tape. This probably won't happen
ever again, whcih is why I have been sending printouts of the bpimmedia
output. That way I know exactly what tapes are needed for an image
import.
Regretably, these backups were pre those days.....
I couldn't use the db tape because this was not DR, the master server
(and only media server) still had this client in a regular rotation so
usign the db tape would (I think) wipe out the existing images. And any
other method would have taken even longer.
Thanks anyway for the input.
