The recovery program by default relies on new meta data that is stored (below each pc/HOST/nnn directory) when a backup is made under 3.x. If you are running 3.x and you want to recover backup info for a backup taken with 2.x, you need to add the -l option: su backuppc BackupPC_fixupBackupSummary -l HOST That tries to recover the information from the LOG files, although there are cases where the right information is not available.
