Can you copy and paste the exact commands that you enter, and the output of them? By the way, I have found out that it is very easy to crash the file daemon when running the Exchange plugin, and it is not always obvious. Whenever anything goes wrong, it is a good idea to check that it is still running. Restarting the director helps too. Also, I have found that you can only restore reliably from a full or a full and a single incremental. If you have a chain of incrementals, it doesn't work. Which rather defeats the point of the plugin. There has been an unacknowledged bug entry for this for a month now (bugid 1647). > *status director > > Running Jobs: > Console connected at 04-Nov-10 13:49 > JobId Level Name Status > ====================================================================== > 1208 RestoreFiles.2010-11-04_14.52.32_06 is waiting on > Storage SuperLoader3 > > *status SuperLoader3 > > Device status: > Autochanger "Autochanger" with devices: > "LTO-4" (/dev/nst1) > Device "LTO-4" (/dev/nst1) is mounted with: > Volume: KYE718L4 > Pool: WinServer > Media type: LTO-4 > Slot 6 is loaded in drive 0. > Total Bytes Read=151,151,616 Blocks Read=2,343 Bytes/block=64,512 > Positioned at File=212 Block=2,343 > > These values don't change over the time. > > Am I missing something? > > Greetings > Michael > > just in case, it might be useful: Here's the relevant part of what I > get when typing "show fileset": > > O Mie > WD [A-Z]:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/*/Lokale > Einstellungen/History > WD [A-Z]:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/*/Lokale > Einstellungen/Temp > WD [A-Z]:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/*/Lokale > Einstellungen/Temporary Internet Files > WD [A-Z]:/Dokumente und > Einstellungen/*/Lokale Einstellungen/Cookies > WD [A-Z]:/dokumente und > einstellungen/*/lokale einstellungen/verlauf > WD [A-Z]:/Winnt/system32/config > WD [A-Z]:/Windows/system32/config > WF [A-Z]:/pagefile.sys > WF [A-Z]:/hibernate.sys > N > I c:/ > I d:/ > N > P exchange:/@EXCHANGE/Microsoft Information Store > N > E d:/MDBDATA > E d:/EASY_DATA > E d:/MP3 > N > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > The Next 800 Companies to Lead America's Growth: New Video Whitepaper > David G.
