We managed to restore a 206 GB file to the same server with no issues or errors; the admin of the box determined we didn't need the 38 GB file, so the issue was dropped. I'd rather have resolved the issue, myself.

Hello, Only curious, is this one solved? //Henrik -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stefan Holzwarth Sent: 10. mars 2008 20:33 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] AW: Interesting problem in MS-Win restoer -- anyone seen something like this before? In the past we had 2 times a similar problem: first time (tsm server on mvs) the ip sequence number did a wrap around and was not properly handled by mvs. (So large restores always stopped at different positions) sencond time (tsm server on nt) we realized that our network backbone did corrupt our ip pakets without crc errors! we could view the problem by adding crc tothe communication layer within tsm. The restore to that time (a exchange db) was no more possible since the backup data were not correct. The restore always stopped at the same position.
