Backup Exec MS SQL Restore
Hi
I'm trying to restore an MS SQL backup by redirecting it to another database server using Backup Exec 12.5
when ever i start the restore, the byte count shows 8192 and stays there forever. I have 'inventory-ed' and 'cataloged' as required.
any ideas?

I have had this issue before when the servers were different versions of SQL with Backup Exec. I think your issue may be caused by a know bug, see http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH75125
Question ...
Are you attempting to re-direct to a DB that already exists ?..
Try redirecting to a DB name that doesn't exist on the server you are restoring to.
If I remember this correctly...it should create the db for you.

Don't create a DB..
Do your DB selection to restore.
On SQL redirection, put in the server you are redirecting to, and "restore to database" with a NEW name of a db that doesn't exist.
On SQL settings, check Replace databases and filegroups
Consistency check - full check including indexes
...try that.

You could try renaming the current DB to ..."Name Old 04212011",...then restore to the "old name".
