Yiannakis, What version of Windows are you running, 2k or 2k3. I have had problems with restoring databases over 4GB on Win2k. I'm not sure as to why there is a limitation with this, but I have never been able to get it to work. It works fine on Win2k3.

The database is relatively small, 18GB only, and the fact that Q MOUNT shows the tapes are loaded and are in use shows that the session is ok.

Could that be the reason ? I'm not sure (I never restored a sql database), but I think the restore goes in 2 steps: 1. creating an empty database 2. restoring data I think 1. is taking a lot of time. In fact, it's possible that the session times out on 1. so you will get an error and you have to start all over. Stef
