GOAL:

Why is Prorest prompting for another backup volume ?

GOAL:

When does Prorest prompts for another backup file ?

FACT(s) (Environment):

All Supported Operating Systems
Progress 8.x
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x

FIX:

Prorest will prompt for another backup volume when it requires more blocks to finish the restoration the DB. If Prorest is interrupted at this point the DB will be incomplete and cannot be accessed.

Probkup creates more than one volume when:

1) The -vs parameter is used to defined a volume size and Probkup already filled the volume size.

2) The magnetic media is filled up

3) If Probkup hits the 2 GB limit and has to create another volume.

It is important to check the DB's .lg file for completion of the backup.
