Hello again,
I've had a lot of success on the forums recently with questions, so here goes again!
We upgraded our Master server and two Media servers from 7.5.0.5 to 7.7.1 successfully.
All of our VMware backups work a treat. However, a number of ...
We recently upgraded from 7.5.0.5 to 7.7.1, still running on Windows Server 2008 R2, but we have a problem with restoring VMWare backups to alternate locations.
Restoring to the original location works as it always has, but when restoring to an alte...

I think I was having a bad day as, in my absence last week, a colleague has successfully restored.
Thanks for all your help.
However, having kicked off the restore and Netbackup successfully creating the new VM, nothing has happened on the job in activity monitor for nearly an hour:
10/15/2015 08:59:39 - begin Restore

So, the job has started and it's created the VM but it doesn't look like it's doing anything so far.
It's quite a large server: two VMDks totalling 1.8TB. Would you expect to see the job 'hang' here while it reads the backup file?
Looking on the m...
