Backup Exec 12.5: catalog issue

JaapB
Level 4
Hi,

We are using Backup Exec 12.5 right now and i need to restore some files from a backup set made by a previous version of Backup Exec (10.x). As the backup set made with Backup Exec 10.x is unknown, i ran an inventory on the tapes and performed a catalog. When i view the job log from the catalog, it shows all the files stored on the backup set. When i rightclick the tape to perform a restore i get the message "The selected media was not found in the catalogs. You must first catalog the media if you want to use it for restore operations". When i try to make a catalog of the same backup set again, the job log from the catalog states that the backup set has already been cataloged.

Any help will be appriciated.

JaapB.

Dumb mistake by myself. In the restore properties i forget to put backup the beginning backup job. Now the restore finds the catalog.

Sorry for any inconvenience.
