We’ve had to do the timeout change as well when attempting certain SQL restores. Specifically it was:
CLIENT_READ_TIMEOUT we changed from 7200 (2 hours) to 32000. My notes show that we found that we could change it just before the restore was started and then safely change it back after the restore had started
so as not to impact anything else.
However, I haven’t seen that issue for quite some time and had forgotten about it until Doug’s email so I’m not sure if it is still an issue (or solution).

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] There are no files matching the specified criteria
What I did was change the global timeouts for restores to be 120 minutes. I had that problem when attempting to restore a file from a backup with 10 million files on a 250 GB drive. The restore would always
fail before I did this. I know the timeout is a bit extreme but I tried changing to 20 minutes then 60 minutes and the job still failed.
This is an answer to an old thread about this problem:
when I try to restore files from a backup the NetBackup GUI reported "There are no files matching the specified criteria."
I’m having the same problem. I’ve been working with Netbackup for 10 years. I know 100% for sure this is not user error on my part. This happens to me when I’m trying to restore
from a backup of an extremely large number of files. When I go to restore them, it looks to me like the console simply times out. Like the original poster, I’m running netbackup on a Solaris master, though I’m running a newer version: 7.1.0.3. Back in the
day when catalog files were stored in .Z format, I could uncompress big ones manually before trying to run a restore from a very large backup, but I’m not aware of any trick I can use on the current catalog format. Anyone got any ideas? I’m going to look
at the command line and see if it can help me...
Thanks in advance,
