Dear Managers,
As per Tom Blinn's previous suggestion I phoned CSC. Sure enough, they
did have a patch to avoid the "record 14" errors (which do seem to be due to
the v4.0B vrestore not recognized directory ACL's). Today was my first restore
with the patched vrestore. Instead of complaining about the records, it just
dumped core on me. So the problem is not solved and I'm back to the phones.

Dear Managers,
This morning a user needed a single file restored. When I
started vrestore, I got about half a dozen messages like this:
RECORD HEADER (unknown/unexpected)
record type : 14
data offset : 0
record size : 80
flags : <none>
I also received this message:
vrestore: error setting extended attributes 2
The vdump (which had been done just a couple of hours earlier)
did not show any errors of any kind. The actual file seems to have
been restored successfully. Should I be concerned? I would prefer
not to find out with some mission-critical restore.
The system is a DEC 3000/600. We're running V4.0B with the
latest jumbo patch.
Larry
