Hi,

Having the communication time out(comtimeout) on the server set very low
could cause a tcp/ip time out problem. Please increase the "commtimeout" to
"500" seconds, the default is 60 seconds.

To have a successful restore, the password signon process'tdpipswd' must be
successful.

Regards.

Cai
