Re: q backup

Keep in mind that drive letters c: d: e: get converted to UNC naming convention.

For example you have Server1 that has done backups of the t: drive. On the TSM

server you will get a filespace of \\Server1\t$ for example. Now you go to a machine

called Restore2. You try to restore the t: drive of Server1 to the c: drive of Restore2.

If you execute the command restore t:\dir c:\dir this gets translated to

restore \\Restore2\t$ \\Restore2\c$ , so what you really need to do is specify explicitly

the UNC naming. Restore \\Server1\t$ \\Restore2\c$.
