Cannot change browse date

Hi,

I have a MSSQL saveset whose status is recoverable.

MSSQL:ABC 2467444843 full recoverable 000048L3 clientname 62G 8 Default 4/26/08 5:00:45 AM

I would like to restore this saveset but it is invisible from the client, thus I would like to change the browse time.

I executed nsrmm -S 2467444843 -w 06/30/08 but i got an error message nsrmm: Cannot exceed the browse time of a recoverable save set 2467444843. (Retention policy is forever.)

Also I tried nsrck -L7 -t "4/26/08 5:00:45 AM" clientname but nothing changed.

Since this is a MSSQL saveset I cannot restore it with restore -S ssid. Please help.

Thanks in advance.
Yoshi

    At the client side command line;
    enter recover menu
    then enter "changetime", enter new save time in the format dd/mm/yyyy
    add the files you want to recover with "add" command.
    use "recover" command to recover the files.

    Obviously you can't see it as it is expired from index database. Obviously changing browse policy for such saveset doesn't make sense. You executed nsrck with -t for save time (when it begin) for time on client side - I guess index entry did not exist at that time on server so I would try different time (something within original browse policy). If it fails and you are in hurry, delete it and scan it back.

    Thank you for the advice.

    I performed nsrck -L7 -t "5/17/08 5:00:30 AM" clientname when index file was not yet expired then the saveset has gotten browsable. Thanks again.

    Hi,

    Seems like if there is a gap between browsable save sets the isolated saveset is not seen from client. Thus I restored the data by designating nsavetime.

    Get nsaveime: mminfo -q ssid=xxxx -r name,ssbrowse,ssretent,fragflags,nsavetime
    Restore data: nsrsqlrc -s servername -c client -d MSSQL:copydbname -t nsavetime MSSQL:dbname

    Regards
