Martin,
I no longer have any of the latter, because I dropped and rebuilt my
database using bscan to clear a multitude of duplicate-primary-key
errors in the PathHeirarchy table that were occurring after first
updating to 5.2.1.

I will test the former scenario and report back.


Specific error:
If I use the BAT Restore button, select a Job, uncheck "Use most
recent", and select a date corresponding to a 5.0.3 backup, I get an
error popup reporting "No full backup before [timestamp] found."  For
example:

No Full backup before 2011-10-27 13:20:15 found.

If I leave 'Use most recent' checked, then all proceeds as normal
through tree building etc.  The restore tree is built from ONLY the
three most recent jobs, run on 5.2.1, JobIDs 168, 173, 178.  No 5.0.3
jobs appear in the list of available jobs to build the tree from.
However, if I go to Jobs Run, the oldest listed backup for this client
is JobID 1, 2011-09-05 04:30:24.  'list files JobId=1' yields the
expected results, file list plus the following summary:

+-------+-----------------+---------------------+------+-------+----------+----------------+-----------+
| JobId | Name            | StartTime           | Type | Level |
JobFiles | JobBytes       | JobStatus |
+-------+-----------------+---------------------+------+-------+----------+----------------+-----------+
|     1 | Babylon5 Backup | 2011-09-05 04:30:24 | B    | F     |
474,957 | 15,906,563,359 | T         |
+-------+-----------------+---------------------+------+-------+----------+----------------+-----------+

The jobs list shows a total of 44 jobs for this client, three of those
Full (two 5.0.3, one 5.2.1).



Also, I received another error from this BAT session:  After closing a
couple of tabs, BAT became unresponsive.  After killing it and
restarting, I found the following error message displayed in the
Director console:



.messages
02-Nov 13:15 babylon4-dir: ERROR in authenticate.c:418 Unable to
authenticate console "*UserAgent*" at client:10.24.32.10:36131.
