The ;PROGRESS= works for me if it is the last parameter.  I have noted that
it doesn't work for me if I put it in the middle somewhere.

        Steve,

        I realize this is probably the least of your worries, but I've never
seen
        the ;PROGRESS= option work on a RESTORE.

        Anyone on the list know if this works?

        Patrick (it's the little things that bug me.)

        I suspect I am going to have to do my second reload in just over two
        months (stay tuned on comments I will have about a hardware VAR
later!).

        Luckily, this one will not be as 'urgent' so I will be able to get a
full
        backup just prior to the reload.

        Anyway, I learned some lessons from the last reload but I need a
sanity
         check on my reload strategy, so here it is, punch holes in it for
me.

        - make an SLT now!!
        - do the full backup
        - check the full backup listing for files missed
        - deal with the missed files
        - system goes down
        - drive replaced
        - system up, using SLT, UPDATE CONFIG option
        - restore @.PUB.SYS;directory; olddate
        - restore @[log in to unmask]@[log in to unmask];olddate;progress=10
        - wait six hours
        - reboot system
        - up and running

        Where have I had brainlock and forgotten something

        thx
