Title
Error: "Unable to create object for restore" when using NetBackup 6.0 -
Description
When trying to do a redirected restore from the NetBackup 6.0 server you receive the error: "Unable to create object for restore" which is then followed by the Storage Group Name
-
Cause
The Maintenance Pack level of the NetBackup 6.0 master server is MP2 or higher which polls Active Directory for a list of Active Exchange servers to restore to. Recovery Manager for Exchange can emulate an Exchange server but it does not register in Active Directory as an Exchange server therefore the NetBackup 6.0 master server cannot restore to it.
-
Resolution
Install the NetBackup 6.0 client with no MP or with MP1 only on the Recovery Manager for Exchange server, then use this client to 'pull' the backup set from the master server while Recovery Manager for Exchange is in Emulation mode.
