• The catalog protection has expired. Refer to “Most Frequently Used
Backup Options” on page 227 for more information about data and
catalog protection.
• The media are not from the same Data Protector cell and, as such, are
not recognized in the IDB of the cell. In this case, you need to import
it first.
Prerequisite A large amount of memory on the Cell Manager is required. The amount
of memory needed can be estimated by using the following formula:
number_of_files multiplied by 200 bytes.
Limitations • You cannot list database application objects from the media.
• Files that span several media cannot be restored directly fro media.
All media needed to restore the file have to be imported, and then the
file can be restored using the List From Database option.
