Retrospect is confused!

[kaikow]

As I discussed in other threads recently, I have a 3 hard drive system on which I had to replace Driive 2. Drive 0 and 1 are the same as before.

 

DRive 0 has C-D

DRive 1 has F-H

Drive 2 has I-M

 

I restored the files to all drives, except F from BackUpSet1.

 

Today, after doing some real work, I decided that I'd back up the work to an already existing BackUpSet2.

 

Alas, Retrospect issued the following error:

Can't access volume Micronc (C:), error -1102 (drive missing/unavailable)

Retrospect Professional only supports Open File Backup on Windows XP.

 

Which is nonesense as Micronc is present and was used today.

 

Note that if I use REtrospect to Configure volumes, there are TWO MicronC drives listed.

The first is dimmed and the 2nd is OK.

 

What is the proper way to correct the situtation?

 

I want to make sure BackUpSet1 and BackUpSet2 are properly configured.

 

The catalog for BackUpSet1 was recreated AFTER the files were restored, may I ASSuME that BackUpSet1 is OK?

 

I ASSuME that I could check BackUpSet1 by creating a fiile on drive C and C whether Retrospect backs it up to backupset1.

 

If not, I have the same problem with backupset1.

 

What do I need to do?

A partial solution was to edit the script for BackUpSet2.

 

But Configure Volumes under My Computer in Retrospect still lists two drive Cs.

Hi

 

Just to add a bit more information here:

 

Retrospect will only show the same drive twice is something used to identify that drive has changed. Block size, drive serial number, partition structure are all factors involved with device recognition.

 

Thanks
