I am trying to recover a full file backup taken from our production system to disk.
It is to be recovered to a new server into a newly installed empty DB.
the two servers are identical windows dl360g4s
I have shared the disk with the DB backup from the production machine to the new server
however whether utilising the dbmgui or dbmcli the recover fails with a -903 I/O error on the "shared" backup file.
The dbmcli output is below, can anyone cast any light on the error please?
is the problem due to using a fileshare from another server and if so is there any way around that?
please don't suggest copying the file locally as it is 1.4TB in size and we don't have that available.
dbmcli on sdb>db_connect
OK

dbmcli on sdb>db_state
