  • This looks like a Client Connect timeout. Default timeout is 5 min (300).

    I have seen with SQL and Oracle restores that Client Connect and Client Read timeouts need to be increased on the media server.

    Please increase thes 2 timeouts to 1800.
    Ensure that bpbrm and bptm folders exist on the media servers and bpcd log folder on the client.
    Set logging to level 3 on media server and client.

    If restore still fails, start with bpbrm log on the media server to track client connection attempt.
