I was recently in a SAP training class concerning LiveCache administration. In the class the instructor told me that I could refresh one MaxDB instance to another MaxDB instance on different unix machines. I did the following: I took the backup on a MaxDB 7.6 instance on machine a (instance name LCC). Ftp'd the file (binary) to the MaxDB 7.5 instance on machine b (instance name TYL) and placed it in my backup medium directory. Placed the MaxDB 7.5 instance in admin mode Started the recovery and it does know of the DAT file I ftp'd to the machine b instance but it errors off with the following messages: Could it be due to differnet MaxDB releases? Or is it due to different instance names? I can successfully restore on the same machine but really need to be able to pull off a refresh down the road. Any help would be appreciated. knldiag
