Exchange 2010 DAG GRT Restore error

Owiking
Level 3

Hi

We are running an Exchange 2010 environment with 2 CAS/ HUB servers and 2 mailbox servers in a DAG group. The 2 CAS servers are in an NLB cluster. All 4 servers are running Windows 2008r2.

The Master/ Media server is a Windows 2003r2 32-bit machine. Both the server and the clients have the latest version 7.0.1.

Taking a GRT backup works with no errors. When trying to restore a mail or contact etc, I can browse through the databasen and see everything that has been taken backup off.

Though once I run the restore job I get these error messages.

17:26:42 2010-09-22: Restore Started

I havent been able to figure out where to go from here. Could there be some permissions that I have missed?
Any help appreciated.

Got help in another thread, was missing the NFS client on the CAS servers.
