RE: Physical restore failed

Posted By: Tang, Wally, CTR, DMA-Riv/IT
Date: Tuesday, 27 April 2010, at 3:47 p.m.

Good news; for some reason, I tried to restore once again. It is restored
without any problem. I am going rerun the restore process again, is there
any suggestion before I do it again.

Thanks for all your help.
