Got a bit of a problem with restvg on 5.3ML4

The savevg was done with no errors (tape device block size 0) when testing a restore I get the following error

Restore: 0511-110 There is an unpacking error
Restore: 0511-708 There is an internal unpacking error: decode failure
Restore: 0511-121 Out of space

I have 20Gb free in /tmp

Have searched the web and found an error like this one at 5.1 the solution was not to use 0 block size with savevg.

Anyone come accross this before?

Mike,

you made me think of my backups as well! i have AIX5.3ML4 as well and i've been backingup my data with block 0 :(

I will try to test restoring my data and i will let you know my findings.

If you find any thing on this please keep my posted

Regards,
Khalid
