web restore and novell netware

Dear all,

A customer of ours is using avamar to back up novell netware volumes.

A normal restore via the administration console works fine but all files restored via web restore are corrupted.

After analysis we found that these "corrupted" files are composed of the metadata of novell on the files + the content of the original files.

Anyone with experience with novell netware & web restore ? Any workaround to avoid that the metadata gets restored ?

I'm not a novell expert so any help is welcome !

Regards,

Hi,

Have you tried restore from command line

A.) using avtar ....

1.) to list all backups

avtar --backups --verbose --list --id= --path=

2.) avtar --extract --label=<"Label_Name"> --id= --path= --target=<"DESTINATION_TARGET_NAME"> <"FILE_YOU_WANT_TO_RESTORE">

B.) or involving "mccli"

1.) list all the backups on the Avamar server

    # mccli backup show --name=/XXXDomain/ClientName


2.) to restore the backup from specific client with specific LabelNum to the destination target name

    # mccli backup restore --labelNum= --plugin= --name=/ / --dest-dir=<"DESTINATION_TARGET_NAME">

regards,

Hi Rej,

all "normal" avtar based restores are working just fine on the netware volumes

however , our customer wants to deploy web restore because that's easier to use for end-users.
