Richard,
Had a think about this - have you still got that server available that you re-built with the same name and IP etc? If you do, you can follow these steps.
1. Restore what you can to the file server - at this point don't worry that the placeholders don't work - what we need is the directory structure back - at this point you can actually delete all the files (I can't remember if BE can just restore the directory structure)
2. Re-create archive points - do this with -a option. So just say the archive point was
\\server\share - type this in:- fsautility -a
\\server\share3. Once archive points are created - you can then use fsautility -c to recreate the placeholders.
4. Once placeholders are re-created - do a test, the files should now recall without issues.
At this point, you can then use fsautility -m to move the placeholders to the new fileserver - you will have to do this at the folder level.
However before doing this, you will need to create archivepoints on the new fileserver.
or if the rebuilt oldname server and IP is not available and if you have the room on the new fileserver.
1. Use fsautility -t to restore the original files from their archives to the new fileserver.
2. At this point the files can be archived again.
Hope that helps a bit - if you have issues with doing the above, can you log a case and support will help out.
Let us know how you go.
