Timothy, I do not know how to qalify or quantify what is working and what is not working without more specific info, such as copy & paste of the command you are running and the output you are getting. Perhaps what you need to do is prefix the source file name with the original server name, i.e.,

William, Thanks again, Tried it the command is, restore backupset monthlydocgrppoa.410125866 poa:swsp/ DOQCW2\poa:restore/ -subdir=yes That helps, but does not resolve the problem of restoring a backupset where the server from which the set was created no longer exists. Would this mean the cli

I am having problems restoring a backup set from one node to another. I set access archive * * on node DOQCRPS and tried to restore the same backupset to DOQCW2, but I get the error ANS1934E Backup set 'monthlydocqrppoi.410125866' not found. I checked the backupset name and it is still active and t
