A few of questions. 1) Have you contacted the vendor for assistance? 2) Have you ever successfully restored from a logical backup an IAM Data Base? 3) Are there utilities in IAM that will help you with this issue? 4) Are you on a current release of IAM?
Have you tried pre-allocating the file and then restoring it with REPLACE option?
