Hello,

I wanted to make a copy of an existing database, so I created a new 
database, copying the parameters from the existing database.  I backed up 
the original database using a complete backup with Checkpoint to a file.

I logged into the new database with dbmgui as the dbm, and selected 
"database" from the "recovery" tab.  I selected the appropriate backup, 
and started the restore.  It stopped after a few seconds with the 
messages:

-2008: Message not available.
Please correct the problem and repeat the action.
Log file is empty after initialize configuration.

Perhaps I am doing something wrong.  Is the procedure I outlined above 
appropriate for copying a database? (making a copy on the same server).

Thank you,
