On a fresh Retrospect MultiServer 7.5.387 install, I have 4 SQL Agent licences free for use.

I can see in volume list some of the servers having only one SQL 2000 or 2005 databases, but on a 2003 server (32 bits) using 6 // SQL Server 8.00.2039 (SP4) versions instances, I can't see anything...

Of course, production Databases I have to backup are 4 of them...

Sorry for my english level....

I hope someone could help me.

regards

+ Executing Restore database from Backup at 20/05/2008 11:45 (Execution unit 2)
20/05/2008 11:45:16: Connected to db-server
To volume TestRestore on db-server...

- 20/05/2008 11:45:16: Restoring from DB-SERVER
Restore type: Full
Trouble writing files, error -1004 (Database Backup/Restore error)
20/05/2008 11:47:54: Execution incomplete
Remaining: 1 files, 2,396 KB
Completed: 0 files, zero KB
Performance: 0.0 MB/minute
Duration: 00:02:37 (00:00:34 idle/loading/preparing)

This happens if I restore a database to its original location, to a new database on the same server, to a new database on a different sql server.

I have also tried authenticating as RBU, the domain admin account and the sa account. All with the same error.

The databases seem to be backing up fine.

The setup is:

Retrospect Multi Server 7.5.387
Driver Update and Hot Fix, version 7.5.13.100
Running on a Windows 2003 Server, fully patched.

The client is SQL2000 all service packed, with Retrospect Client version 7.5.116.

Any ideas?

Please forgive the elementary nature of my question, but could someone please explain the differences between these two database backup types:

1. Log backup
2. Log backup no truncate

I have scoured EMC's site, and I even resorted to reading the manual ;-) and I can't find anything that fully explains what the difference is.

Thanks in advance!
