I cannot get my head around it.
I had to re-install it when i started as sum1 had passworded it so it could not be used
Is there some sort of guide for backup exec thats not the 1000+ pages long admin guide's.
Any Help would be super.

I am in a similar situation. Although in my case, the system was not tied down, I am having trouble understanding it. My problem is with restoration.
I catalog an archive tape, but the restore wizard does not show me the catalog list from the tape. It shows me a few that are on the drive. The situation is the same for any tape. i have cataloged my archive tape a few times repeatedly. I hope in the process, I did not lose any data.
Please help.
My platform info:
Win 2003 Server
BE 9.1
Thanks.

After cataloging the tape in the devices view right click on the displayed media name and select restore from the drop down menu.

If it doesn't leak oil it must be empty!!

I did that . But as I mentioned, the restore "list" does not bring up the "new catalog" list form the freshly cataloged tape. It shows me old lists, existing on the hard drive.
