We have started trying out an Information Store backup of our Exchange database using BackupExec 6.0MP5, and can restore to a recovery information store just fine in order to recover certain mailboxes; but we are having trouble restoring in a DR situation. When we try to restore the information store to it's original location, we get this error message:

10:01:16 (18059.001) INF - TAR STARTED
10:01:16 (18059.001) TAR - Microsoft Information Store:\First Storage Group\Mailbox Store (<mail server>)
10:01:17 (18059.001) WRN - error writing object: Microsoft Information Store:\First Storage Group\Mailbox Store (<mail server>)
10:01:17 (18059.001) WRN - error writing byte: 0
10:01:17 (18059.001) WRN - desired byte count: 30208
10:01:17 (18059.001) WRN - actual byte count: 170

The restore continues on for the full length of what it would normaly do, but it doesn't write any data to the disk, and obviously, nothing happens except 45 minutes wasted waiting. Am I doing the backup wrong? Am I doing the restore wrong? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
