I went ahead and tested because I thought the damage was already done. In fact I did the same restore from the director's console just to see if it made a difference. The results from the director's console were exactly the same as the target's console. Also, I proved other files are definitely getting restored even after only 1 file was marked for restoration. I am using disk as my storage device in case it makes a difference. I am almost certain I am using the correct settings for the restore job, so I have no idea what is going on. Anyone have any idea what is going on? Thanks. Scott ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
