Thanks Shawn, I will have to see about the storepool that may not be a issue not sure. We do have other backup sets (NOVELL) only about 3 or 4 that runs weekly. We don't use TOC for them either, I don't even think there was a GENERATE BACKUPSETTOC command yet when we started those.
When the Novell Admin needs a file (s) he just restore them, I am thinking if I can get the syntax correct for restoring a folder I could have the client try it and see if the file restores. I know with the Novell backupset restores it took us several tries to get the syntax correct. In addition when we got the correct syntax we had to change it at times for it to work again. Here is what I have so far dsmc restore backupset d:\BOVSrv3\Shared\OCRgroup\Stacey Colby\ Turpentine Elements (Turpentine Elements is the missing folder) or can this be done? dsmc restore backupset d:\BOVSrv3\Shared\OCRgroup\Stacey Colby\ -subdir-yes regards -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Shawn Drew Sent: Thursday, February 02, 2012 6:20 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: TOC backups set question TOCs aren't stored in the database. You will need storagepool space to store the TOC. This is the pool that "TOCDESTINATION" points to in the copygroup. The database temp space is only used when you are performing queries against that data. (it copies the data temporarily from the TOC storage pool) It will sit in the database temporarily until the "SET TOCLOADRETENTION" period expires. You can always delete all of this afterwards.
