    screen shot can not show the blank lines i believe

    i just tested in my desktop, hitting enter is creating a blank line..which you need to remove.

    so 

    1)delete the file Rename_list.txt.

    2)create it again

    3)put the line

    change /D/Netbackup to /E/Netbackup

    4)don' t hit Enter.

    save it. and try restore.

    hi .

    -R is for the rename list..

    so your command should be like 

     

    C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\bin>bprestore.exe -B  -L  /E/tmp/restore3.log
     -C dell-pc  -D dell-pc   -t 13 -s 12/16/2012 -e 12/16/2012  -R /C/Temp/Rename_list.txt
    -f /C/Temp/filelist.txt
     
    and keep  C/Temp/Backup  in file  /C/Temp/Rename_list.txt.
     
     so when you open the file /C/Temp/Rename_list.txt. entires should be like below.
    chage <souce filename> to <destination name>
     
    you can reffer the below tech note

    so did you create the file C:\Temp\Rename_list.txt  ? (should be on the server from where you are running the command bprestore)

    and what did you keep in this file?

    could you share the screenshot of it?

    remove another .txt at the end of the file 

    Rename_list.txt.txt ---->Rename_list.txt

    even for filelist.txt.txt --->filelist.txt

    and inside of the file it should be like below.

    change /D/Netbackup to  /E/Netbackup

     

     

    hope this helps.
