Are the tapes in the library? It tells you what tapes are needed but
did you notice the location of the tapes? Make sure the backup server
can see the tapes. IF an autochanger inventory if the tapes have been
placed into the autochanger. 

You can also do a command line recover from the client by running
recover -s backupservername -S SSID......

Subject: [Networker] Such a long time to recover a save set ?

Hello,

On one of my Unix clients, a disk crashed this morning. 

I've put a new disk, initialized the filesystem on it, issued a nwadmin
command on the server and a nwrecover command on the client.

On the Unix server side, I see in the Sessions part client_name:root
browsing and in the Messages part time client_name root:browsing. 

2 processes are running on the server 

pathname/nsrindexd -a READ client_name index for backup on client_name
pathname/ansrd client_name:root recovering

On the client, I choose the file set, then click on start, accept
prompting and it displays the needed tapes. The first 2 ones are
available. I click on OK. The Recover Status window opens and after 2
hours nothing appears.

The 2 processes times have not changed on the server and no specific
process is running on the client.

Is there a problem somewhere ?

Thank you for your help.

Regards,

Daniel Clar
