Title: RE: RMAN NETBACKUP recovering from say 6 MONTHS ago

The logs are usually located in /opt/openv/netbackup/logs.  The instructions on how to activate logging for each of the Netbackup components is in /opt/openv/netbackup/logs/README.debug.  The process you are looking to debug is bprestore.  The instructions for activating debug logging for bprestore are as simple as having the SA create the directory /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/bprestore, although I would activate all of them in order to get a complete picture.  After the directories are created rerun your restore and go mining in the logs.  I would start on the client side logs (just to make sure it's not a connectivity problem) and then proceed to troubleshoot the server side of things.   Good luck.

Im in a different location so I guess I will have to travel to the other side of town and look myself. You dont know the directory of the logs do u by chance. I dont actually have access to the netbackup server so I am not familiar with its file locations Thanks again Sam
