   Yeah, well, Solaris OS restores under NBU can be problematic.
   There's a document that was sent round by Bob Boldin as a follow-up to a
Summary he'd submitted to the SunManagers list titled "Fully Documented Full
System Restore." Starting on page 25 it describes using NBU to recover a
system that was backed up with NBU; he sent the still-incomplete document
out to people who'd requested it.
   You should be able to find his email address in the archives of that
list. See:
