Here is my situation which I am hoping someone will be able to tell me what I am doing incorrectly.
I have a 600GB LUN that is being backed up just fine over NDMP. Doing a DR test, so I'm trying to restore this LUN to another 600GB LUN with a different name. NetBackup says it successfully restored the file although the KBs it says it restored is 160GB and in the LUN all I see are 2 files that equate to 5.17MBs. Any ideas or if you guys need more information let me know.

I was able to restore the LUN and attach it via NetApp snapdrive. What I was doing was creating another volume and the LUN inside it. All I had to do was remove the LUN and point NetBackup just to the volume. NetBackup automatically created the LUN.
