    Restore never starts at all with 6.4.0.1015. Process is waiting on PREEMPTIVE_OS_GETPROCADDRESS.

    Can you back up using 6.4.0.1015? Can you back up a small database and restore it?

    Thanks.

    Here's what happening. If I specify the filename of a full backup, [\\Recovery\SQLBackups\Nasdaq\CustomerViews\FULL_CustomerViews_20100811_083903.sqb], it will restore. If I use [\\Recovery\SQLBackups\Nasdaq\CustomerViews\*.sqb] LATEST_FULL the restore never starts.

    Could you please download 6.4.0.1015 again? I've fixed the hanging issue with the LATEST_ALL option.

    Thanks.

    I think that took care of it. I'm going to try something a bit larger with more files.

    Everything seems to be working ok now.

    Yes, 6.4.0.1015 has done it all so far. I have been able to restore that 30GB database using the Latest_All option from a network backup source with many backup files present. The full restore component completed in just over 44 minutes, just like 6.4.0.56. It has also worked with several smaller databases, too.

    Fantastic!!

    Thanks for all your efforts, Pete.

    All my test restores went off without a hitch last night. Thanks Pete.
