    I dont have one to test but try the following and see if the output helps:

    bpcatlist -policy catarc -since 1970

    Did you do archiving before you upgraded to 7.5?

    If so have you seen this article http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH188991

    Not sure if the fix in 7.5.0.3 means you are now fixed or still need help

    The bpcatlist -policy mypolicy command will tell you if you are affected

    Hope this helps

In theory you could run it at any time - but i would prefer to do this sort of operation during a quiet time - you are loading the Master with a lot of data so it will inevitably take a hit

Maybe stage it a little at a time over a period of days until you have it all restores - do this using the -before switch as per this doc: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH36433

Good luck
