RE: 2005 Restoring

Wow, that's just impressive. OK, a 12MB Db should restore in just a few
secs, so you're several hundred thousand times off track...

That said, it looks like your restore is stuck somewhere. Are you restoring
the DB from the same version of SQL2k5?

ok, let's start here... answer these questions.

1. Are you restoring over an existing DB or has the original DB been
deleted and you're trying to get it back?

2. Is it restoring to the same server?

3. What is the exact syntax you're typing to run the restore?

First be patient - I'm an Informix DBA who is tasked to manage a 2005
install. I have a db that's been restoring for 24 hrs and is only 12
MB. Normally it would only take a minutes and it would be done. I've
gone through the logs and found a few errors but nothing to do with
the db in question or the master.

Does anyone have any suggestion on how I can stop this? I can see the
process running but nothing that would indicate anything out of the
norm.

Thanks in advance.
