Novell OES Restore single files

Question

Hello everyone,

&nbsp;

I've got a VMware Backup of SUSE Linux 10 SP 4 with Novell OES 2 SP 3.

The Backup includes a NSS Volume - it runs successfully.

When I try to restore I can browse through the folders but no files are shown.

&nbsp;

The size of the backup looks good, so my question is whether this is a normal behavior that I cannot restore a single file?

&nbsp;

Thanks in advance!

&nbsp;

Best regards

If you are browsing just the incremental backup then you may experience this issue. Try to combine a full backup along with INCR backup and then browse.&nbsp;

Hi Daniel,

Netbackup version? Are you doing in guest backup or using Netbackup for vmware policy?

Can you also send the bppllist &lt;backup_policy_name&gt; -L output.
