Trying to restore a LARGE Windows server. Over 40M objects. Client is 6.1
As you can imagine, we have had to use the journal as well as MEMORYEFFICIENT to perform backups. If I read correctly, MEMORYEFFICIENT is ONLY for backups. Obviously the journal is of no value since the restore is to a new machine/location. The other issue gumming up the works is that the backups have been failing (drive array problems/corruption) and thus TSM has marked almost everything as "inactive". A first, NQR restore (just selected the drive) attempt only restored 90GB (of 600G+) before "finishing successfully". But when I choose to pick inactive as well as active, the NQR is disabled. The server transfers down 1GB of metadata before the client chokes on "insufficient memory". So, how am I supposed to restore this many objects, besides picking one directory at a time, which is not to say that some directories are large enough to also cause a "not enough memory" situation? Suggestions on how to handle this?
