Restoring from old tapes - catalog completes but no server info in set
I am attempting to get some data off some old tapes from 2009. I have Inventoried and Catalogged the tapes in Backup Exec 2012, and the Catalog job has successfully completed, showing that there is 1...
Okay, so these tapes were probably written with a different software. Usually, the same .mtf format is used, but this could explain as to why the catalogs moved to an incompatible folder.

Enabling debugging during cataloging may tell us which software or version of BE was used. It may be worthwhile to try restoring using native Windows backup or BE 2010 (however, this may be difficult to test).
