Hello

I am using Backup Exec 2010 R3 Rev. 5204 (64-bit) on a Windows Server 2008 machine.

What I am looking for is a way to browse archived files/ directories. Sure there is the "search catalog" option in the main menu, but that works for one file/dir at a time only.

What I am looking for is a way to show/browse ALL archived files on ALL tapes in one window like an Explorer Treeview window.
Additional Information in properties would also be nice such as e.g. for a directory: stored as full backup in tape 3, 5 and 6; stored as incremental backup on tape 123, 124, 145)

I tried to do such a thing myself using CatTools. However catTools doesn't create a single output file. Thereby I get no message at all, not even an error message. I enter
cattools -C -FN "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Catalogs\{A018199C-8617-11D1-ABBE-0000-F832B476}.fh" -T TEXT -O C:\Catalog.txt  
--> nothing happens
I enter a false input file name on purpose to test the program e.g.:
cattools -C -FN "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Catalogs\{A01" -T TEXT -O C:\Catalog.txt  
--> nothing happens
I enter CatTools without -C and -FN and I get the splash info screen with the options.

Hopefully there is a way to get the information described above in a way that I don't need to do a program for that....

Thanks for Your answers in advance,

Ruben
