I'm using Informix 7.31 on Win 2000. I'm currently restoring a tape but the restore is asking for Tape 2 when the backup itself is only a "1 tape" backup (I took the backup myself and I know it only used 1 tape).

Can anyone help me? Thanks!

I have no experience with Informix under windows, so I'm just grasping at straws here (since I'm a unix guy).

The informix config file has a variable called TAPESIZE. Did this variable get changed between the time you did your archive and then the restore?

Hey, it's a long shot ....
