Restore of BE2010 backup with BE2012 - VMWare GRT

我需要解决方案

I'm working on planning a BE2012 install to replace our aging BE2010 system and I'm having an issue restoring data from a BE2010 backup.

Here's the specifics:

  • Backup was created on a LTO library using BE2010
  • Backup was done with the VMWare Agent/Option for BE2010
  • Backup was created with GRT enabled
  • GRT restore of this backup set works fine in BE2010

As of yet, I have not been able to restore this data using BE2012. I've tried:

  • restoring the entire VM, which reports the job ran successfully - but restored 0 bytes - e.g. nothing was really restored.
    • this is troubling - at the minimum I figured this would work
  • restoring an individual file within the VM (GRT restore) - when setting up this job I get an error stating "Unable to insert the SERVERNAME Restore 000XX. The restore job has no selections" - when it does indeed clearly contain a selection
    • I've tried redirecting the restore to another server (running the BE2012 agent) and the local file system of the media server - this makes no difference

As of right now I only notice this on GRT enabled backups. I was able to successfully restore a VM that does not use any GRT nor BE Agent (successful restore was a NT4 server of all things!)

Are there any solutions for what appears to be a bug in 2012?
