I assume you get a different error in that case (i.e. it doesn't still say Catalog=0). Since you interrupted bcopy while it was writing, that volume will be in a funny state to the only safe option is to purge it to make it start again. __Martin > > Thx, > Mike > > > Mike Seda wrote: > > Hi All, > > I just have one more question...
