In regard to: [Networker] Saveset restores in 7.1.1 from old saves in...:
Has anyone else had problems with doing a saveset restore with a 7.x server
when the original save was done with 5.5.x? I finally had to do use scanner
since we kept getting the error which occurred immediately even before the
tape was read:
"cannot recover continued ssid "
I haven't had this particular problem, but I can tell you that I've had
terrible problems trying to do a recover of old savesets with a different
major version of NetWorker than they were saved under. In my case, it was
cloned savesets done with a 5.1 client to a 5.2p2 server, trying to
recover the data after the server had been upgraded to 6.1.1.
I spent more than two months working with Legato, sometimes a couple hours
a day, trying to get this data back. In the end Legato couldn't provide
any solution, so I had to reinstall a 5.2 server on a different host and
hook up a standalone drive to get the data back.
Good luck!
Tim
