Craig Sullivan Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 Retrospect starts normal backup, but stops and displays "Catalog out of sync with backup set "xxx." So I run the repair process and it says that it was successful, but when I retry the backup the same catalog sync message comes up again. There are 36 DLT tapes in the set. When I have run the repair, tape #36 is in the drive. Should I start with tape #1 and have it re-catalog all 36 tapes, otherwise how do I resolve this? Help is appreciated.

Lennart_T Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 Are you really running Retrospect 6? Newer versions have the option of "fast catalog rebuild". If enabled (which is the default), you can to a full recatalog with just the last tape. I have no idea if this feature is in version 6 or not.

Craig Sullivan Posted July 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 Hi Lennart, thanks for the reply. Yes, I'm running 6. I didn't see a fast catalog rebuild option. So, do I have to start at tape #1 and proceed through tape #36? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lennart_T Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 Yes, it looks like you will have to do all 36 tapes. Keep a copy of the current catalog file just in case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Sullivan Posted July 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 Thanks again. Will do. Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
