    Which catalog back did you restore? The last one or a previous one from days, weeks, months ago? (which is another big problem)

     

    Any ways, as Marianne stated it would just expire all those images if you start the services.

     

    If you want to "go back in time" you can restore the catalog on ANOTHER standby master, and then make sure you had set the time to be for the same time frame so that the images wont' be expired immediately.

     

    HAving said all that, if you're not taking tapes out of your library, the chances are that NEtBackup would have used the tapes by now for some new backups.
