Re: [Veritas-bu] Restore Job hung

I’ve seen this kind of hang when the
tape is:
Reserved by another job (e.g.
duplications)
Is used by more than one stream of the
original backup you are restoring. We’ve seen this where say the 2nd
stream failed and retried so ended up getting a tape on the retry that was
previously used by stream 1. In such a case the tape is being held to
complete the stream 1 restore even if it is the 3rd tape used for
that stream’s backup. Stream 2 won’t start until stream 1 restore
has completed because the tape isn’t “available” until
then. You can check the images for the backup if it was multistream and see
if more than one of the images has this tape which would tell you this is the
case.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Restore Job
hung
There is a sister company having an issue where they are
performing a restore
from tape that was taken on Dec27th (so not expired) and the
job is just hanging.
It is stating that it is mounting the tape and connected and
then nothing.
I have created some necessary logs to view more info but if
anyone has dealt with this
before please let me know some general things I can check.
