Hi all,

To my Dec8400 server JUKEBOX is attached and I'm backing up the box using the legato networker backup software.

I was trying to recover my database files through the nwrecover command of the Legato networker software which's taking too long according to me .

Though I was not sure whether I can use vrestore or not I tried the command and I'm getting the following error :

command /sbin/vrestore -ivf /dev/nrmt0h

and getting the message

vrestore: unable to use save-set; invalid or corrupt format
*******PROGRAM ABORT*******************
vrestore: can't obtain fileset attributes

I went through the mailing list archive and found only one summary in this issue ie shutting down the box ,powering it off and restarting the machine.
I can't do the same as it's a mission critical machine.

Is there anyway around?
Any help would be highly appreciated.

PS: I remember the DEC admin who worked in my company recovered the database files from the tapes using the vrestore command.So I'm trying to do
the same to see the amount of time I will spend for recovering the database.

Wiht regards,
