Is this during the phase I or phase II import? Have you even tried phase II imports? You have to complete phase I imports of media, then phase II imports of the images on those media before you can restore anything. Up your logging to verbose on the master and check the bptm and bpdbm logs. I

I would agree. Take note, for Solaris, you need to be at Solaris10 Update 4 or higher. I don't know if the install will fail if you try to upgrade, but I went ahead and patched the OS before doing the upgrade. Not hard, but it took 4-5 hours for each server and they are all T2000's. Rusty
