Strange RESTORE problem: We just added a couple of disc drives to our HP3000/957, so we thought we'd do an install/restore to defragment. The install was successfully, and we re-added the other drives to the system volume set (we are, unfortunately, entrenched in a single-volume-set configuration for the time-being), and began restoring our backup tapes. Our entire system is backed up to two tapes using two :STOREs. The first is created with the DIRECTORY option, and that tape restored just fine. The second, however, had many files that wouldn't restore: if the RESTORE command was entered without a CREATE, it would complain that the account didn't exist for these files, even though the account did exist, and other files would restore successfully to the same groups and accounts! If the RESTORE was entered with a CREATE, we would get S/R 1958 "Creation of account directory node failed" (presumably because it already existed). I could find no obvious differences between the files that restored successfully and those that didn't; it still seems very strange to me. I finally ended up logging into each affected group individually and restoring the files for that group with the LOCAL parameter, and now we're back up again, but it was very tedious (several dozen groups individualy restored). I wasn't able to find anything relevant on HP Supportline; has anybody else seen anything like this - any ideas? Thanks. Ray.
