I am not sure if it was clear in my original note but
ANE4955I (Session: 6894, Node: PORSD1)  Total  objects restored:  1,381,024
was the figure from the backup set restore.

If anyone has seen this sort of discrepancy or has any thoughts that explain the
 difference,
please let me know

Subject:  Discrepancy between standard restore and restore backupset

Am I missing something obvious?
I am doing some comparison testing of  backupset restores against standard
restores.
I understood that in both cases restore would only be of active files and yet I
see with a standard
restore
ANE4955I (Session: 5106, Node: PORSD1)  Total number of objects
 restored:  2,238,710
ANE4955I (Session: 6894, Node: PORSD1)  Total
  objects restored:  1,381,024

There was a period of time between the two restores so I would not expect them
to be identical, but
nothing like this discrepancy
My questions are :-

1) Anyone know why the large difference in the number of objects restored ?
2) If the lower number of objects is all the active files, then how do I force
the traditional restore to
restore just the active files?

The server being restored was a netware box and it was being restored to another
 netware box
in both cases to an empty volume.
The commands used were

LOAD   DSMC   REST   -SU=Y   -REPL=N   -TAPEP=N    PORSD1\DATA:/
CONT_5500\DATA:/

load dsmc rest backupset -repl=n -su=y tstbck1.181377263  porsd1\data:
cont_5500\data:\


Thanks
