I have a problem and I'm hoping you guys could help me out.
I have to restore a full backup for a computer, and I'm getting a little
confused as to how to restore my files. When I try to restore through
the bconsole's restore command and using option 5 (Select the most
recent backup for a client), I'm not getting all the files that were
backed up. Here's the output:
Select the Client (1-56): 45
Automatically selected FileSet: Workstation-fs

12 Jobs inserted into the tree.
Now the strange thing is that, when I mark all the files and folder for
restore, only tapes 000031 and 000032 are needed. And when the restore
completes a whole lot of files are still missing. I don't understand why
jobid 8515 on tape 000029 (which is last full backup) isn't included in
the restore.
I later executed this command in bconsole:
list files jobid=8515
and got this:
No results to list.

Surprisingly, no files are given, just a summary. Yet if I do the same
command for jobid 8514 and 8516, I get a list of file. Why aren't there
any files for jobid 8515.
And how can I use bscan to update the catalog for jobid 8515 without
having to scan the whole tape? I have a bootstrape file, how can I use
this to either update the catalog or restore the files quickly?
