derekryan Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 retrospect `6.1.126, adriver 6.1.6.100, atto scsi card, vxa-320 drive, os X 10.4.5 Retrospect was giving me "not enough memory" when I tried to restore from one of the tapes. Other tapes work fine. After restart no more "not enough memory" error. Now it says: retrieving, than execution completed successfully" without even asking for the tape. It does that no matter if the tape is in the drive or not. Any clues? Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltr Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 sounds like the tape is, 'set to missing'. do the files you are trying to restore have the 'poof' icon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekryan Posted August 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Where can I set this tape to "not missing"? Yes, some files have "poof" icon on this tape. Log says: Reported missing by user. What should I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltr Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 go to 'Configure->Backup Sets', pick the Backup Set (highlight it) and click 'Configure'. i believe it will show a 'Members' tab and you can highlight the 'Member' (tape) of this backup you are looking for and click, 'Set Found'.

Not if it was a backup set created prior to 6.1. Retrospect has a design error in that those "read only" backup sets can be marked with set missing but never can subsequently marked "set found."

derekryan Posted August 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Thanks. IT WORKED. I have a question: How did this happen? Can it happed on "its own" as a computer error, or there must be human intervention eg. someone has to click somewhere to "set this as missing"?

waltr Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 hi derek, to explain how this happened i'd have to be looking over your shoulder when the problem occurred. i think your question is, "does Retrospect set members to 'missing'", and my answer is no, not in my experience. glad the fix worked for you though.
