Is this a cross OS restore Windows to Linux ?.

Cross OS restore is not supported but may work in some senarios ...

LOTUS_NOTES_PATH configuration variable not set up
 

Specify the path where the Lotus Notes program files reside

on the client. NetBackup must know where these files are to

perform backup and restore operations. The value in this box

overrides the Lotus registry key, if both are defined.

Specify the path where the Lotus Notes program files reside

on the client:

UNIX:

Specify a path that includes the Domino data directory, the

Lotus program directory, and the Lotus resource directory.

For example:

/export/home/notesdata:/opt/lotus/notes/latest/sunspa:/opt/lotus/notes/latest/sunspa/res/C

Hi,

The restore is between the same OS and same lotus versions.

The directory is set to /domino/data:/opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux:/opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux/res/C and also the ini path.

Just the location of the server is changed.
