hi, Can a tape used to backup data using an earlier verion of veritas be restored with newer verision of veritas. I tried it, but restoration fails. If it is possible to be done, can someone please advise me how to do it ?

Thanks

Yes of couse you can. Beofore start restoring, you have to run a catalog job. The only you can restore using that media. If the media is password protected, you should know those credentials as well :) . Hope this helps

Hi naveen,

shrimal is correct...I have used BEWS 12.5 to restore data backed up using 11D.
What are you trying to restore?

Laters!
