Searching for procedures on a restore using Arcserve 2000 software. Any and all information is truly appreciated.
 
You must first identify the tape from which you want to restore. Make sure that this tape actually contains a successful backup!!! Put that tape into your tape drive. Open the Arcserve Manager program. Go to Device Manager and get the name of the tape and the tape ID (looks something like ID: 734E). Then go into the Restore Manager tab and choose Retore by Session. Look for that tape name/ID #. Drill down through the file system and choose the file/directory that you want to restore and put a mark next to it in the little box.

Now go to the destination tab and choose whether you want to restore to the same location or to a different location. If you want to restore the file to a different location, you must uncheck the box that says "restore to orginal location". Now click on the stop light at the top to start your job. You may need to log in to establish security rights.

John,

I'm having some challenges with the restores in ARCserve 2k and was wondering if you knew any way of finding the tape ID number is for the second tape in a 2 tape backup set? All AS shows in the first tape ID number, sequence #2.

I've been through the help files and tried (briefly) to find something on the CA support sites, to no avail. Any suggestions besides going and merging about 20 tapes back into the records ?
