EOF - Oh dear :-( It sounds like a case I had before and basically, its
looking for images on the tapes (from the PHASE1 import) that do not appear
to be there!
Unless something else has recently overwritten images on the tape, or the
tape has expired, or there may be another tape to be imported for phase 1
(but I assume you have all the tapes right?)

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Help importing expired backups
Greetings,
I have Veritas Netbackup 3.4.1 running on a Win 2K box. It has a robot
unit connected directly to it - works fine, but I need to restore some
files from an expired full backup and am having difficulty. I started by
importing all of the expired tapes with the Phase 1 import as follows:
bpimport - create_db_info -id A0000x
I then looked at the dates and found the tape that contained the first
part of the image I needed to restore the full backup. I then tried the
Phase 2 import as follows:
bpimport -id A00011 -backupid host.name.image_1149400138
It begins the Phase 2 import and after a long time of reading the tape,
it gives the error:
Unexpected EOF reading image, the image information is not complete.
And then something about the import being "partially successful."
What should I do now?
I also tried importing from the Administration GUI - import window - it
gives no errors, but when I go to browse my files to see what I can
restore - none of the files appear for the date of the full backup that
I thought I just imported.
I then tried to go to a previous date's full backup (week before) and I
have the same results (different tape).
Any suggestions?
