Hi

I am trying to read files created by a Pervasive database application in a NetWare 4.11 environment into a Windows 2000 Server environment. I have taken a tape backup of the database data in the NetWare environment and am attempting to restore it to the Windows environment.

The software that is restoring the tape to Windows is Backup Exec and it is complaining about “Sparse files” and is erroring. I have contacted Backup Exec support and they can offer no help with this.

It seems that NetWare writes these sparse files in a database environment. Is there any utility that I can run in the Windows environment that can read NetWare sparse files?

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Jules
