Veritas on windows 2000 server does not restore all files

I choose restore and an alternate directorty. I am restoring about 3 GIG ... when I look at the restore details everything is there. however when I do the restore I end up with about 1.7 GIG. many of the files are 1k... I am using open file agent to back them up.... does it perhaps have something to do with that?

Duncan Meyers

Is the number of restored files correct?

yes but some of the files are 1K when restored...

Duncan Meyers

By that do you mean that files that should be, say, 100MB are only 1K?

Duncan Meyers

Could you post more information about your environment? What OS, what version of Backup Exec? Can you also post a text version of the restore log file if appropriate?

Duncan Meyers

Also, what restore options are you using and what file types are you restoring (ie SQL databases, file store, Exchange etc)?

Ok yes the files are showing as 1k and the originals are much bigger.. they show the right size when selecting them for restore..

version is 9.0

files are various... most with probelm are .dbf

Duncan Meyers

What database are you using? Is it Oracle by any chance?

Duncan Meyers

What agents are you using? That is, Oracle Agent, Advanced Open File Agent etc?

Also, take a look at this article: http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/263784.htm

I am using advanced open file agent. That is the only one.
