How to restore client with Networker

Hello,

At 5 years, I do backup with Networker.

I want to restore my client, but in my software Networker, i can't see old version of my client.

old version = client year 2009

I think they are out of my catalog. It's right ?

How i can restore this old version of my client ?

Thanks a lot !

Please consider moving this question as-is (no need to recreate) to the proper forum for maximum visibility.  Questions written to the users' own "Discussions" space don't get the same amount of attention and questions can go unanswered for a long time.

You can do so by selecting "Move" under ACTIONS along the upper-right.  Then search for and select: "Networker Support Forum" which would be the most relevant for this question.

Hi everyone,

You be identifies the tape where you want to recover and run a scanner at this tape and then nsrck-L2 and nsrck -L6 and  nsrim-X command.

Inventory runs after this Tapes, and performs recovery.

May i suggest that you first check whether you still have at least a valid backup in your media index. If you have a tape backup where the tape has not been recycled or deleted from the media index, you should still be able to see you backups. For this purpose, run

   mminfo -q "client=client_name,savetime>=01/01/2009,savetime<01/01/2010" -r "client,name,level,savetime,ssid,volume"

If the save set still exists, may i suggest you run a save set restore to a temp directory and recover the files from here:

  recover -i Y -s ssid -d destination

This saves the extra scanner process.

I do this command recover -i Y -s ssid -d destination

and i have this message : 6519 recover : cannot support multiple clients, ssid "number sid" from client "myclient" and not `null'

Are you doing this command on client?  If so, I hope you also use -s towards your server.

It seems that the client does not exist any longer and you must fake NW with an entry in the hosts file.

Please see here NW recover: cannot support multiple clients

May i also suggest that you change the sequence a little bit:

from

  recover -i Y -s ssid -d destination

to
  recover -i Y -d destination -s ssid

Ooops - it must of course read "recover -i Y -d destination -S ssid"

I think it would be great if you could supply following screenshots:

- mminfo -q ssid= -r client,ssflags,sumflags,clflags,volume,location,ssretent,name

- nsrls

- recover -s -S -d
