Point unavailable when doing full VM restore from tape

Post by stewsie »

Hi

Today noticed that when attempting to do a full VM restore from tape and selecting point, no tape backups are shown. If I cancel that and select to restore to a repository and then choose a point I am able to see all the backups on tape.

Is this a bug as I have been able to do full restores from tape before and selected a point. We are on the latest version of VBR

I have opened a support case, 07456751

If I don't click the Point button then the next option is to restore from tape so I am 100% sure I am trying to restore from tape

It appears that this is a known issue and I have been offered a fix. I have also been told this will be fixed in the next release whenever that might be

We have the same problem where we are running tape backups since we upgraded to version 12.2.0.334
Is the fix publicly available?
