I am trying a restore for the very first time, so this may just be user
error, but I got strange results when trying to restore a single file to a
Windows XP client.

I ran the WX-Console program from the target machine (Windows XP).  I went
into restore mode and I marked a single file for restore from the root of
the C:\ drive.  If I ran lsmark the correct file was returned.  If I ran
ls the directory was displayed and the single file was prefixed with an
"*".  I ran the count command and the response was that 1 file is selected
for restore.  All of this looks correct to me so I issue the done command.

The restore job needs to be modified so I change the Bootstrap file, the
client name, Where = / (to put back the file where it came from) etc,
until job parameters look correct.  I then launch the job.

The restore kicks off and the file I selected is restored with no problem.
 Seems good, right?  Well here is the kicker:  Unfortunately the restore
continues going through the entire FileSet.  I can not tell if the job is
just reading files, or if it is actually restoring files.  Whatever the
case may be, I do not understand why this would happen.  Once the single
file was restored I would have thought the job would have completed
sucessfully.  I have yet to let the job run all the way through because it
scares me that all the files keep scrolling on the console and the Storage
Device is continuosly active.  I am almost certain it was restoring the
other files based on events that happened during the restore, though I do
not have valid proof and I am too nervous to test.

Is this normal?  Is this user error?  Is this a bug?  Anyone know what is
going on?

Thanks.
Scott
