I didn't see this covered in the FAQs at Backup Central, so here goes:

environment:
NetBackup Datacenter 3.4.1
Sun U10 w/ Solaris 8
Spectralogic Bullfrog 10000 library

I'm restoring a file for a lUser. I use "bp" to initiate the restore action. I 
watch the progress logs and the reports->all logs with "bpadm". bpadm tells me 
that I need to add 3 tapes to my library for the restore. No problem. I add 
them 
and wait... and wait... and wait.

Anyone have any experience in this sort of thing and know about how long one 
should wait for NetBackup to notice that I've already put the tapes into the 
library and begin the restore? Would I be better off killing the restore and 
start over?

I see the processes running using "bpps -a" but nothing happening in the 
progress log. Even using "xnb" and the activity monitor I can't find any detail 
about the job.

Any info appreciated.

Thanks,

*Jason
