I'm hoping someone here can help because Symantec doesn't appear to want to.  I opened a sev 1 hours ago and I'm still on hold!  Anyway on to my issue:

AIX Master/Media server running 6.5.4.  Backups are going to a basic disk DSU (NEC HYDRAstor).  Backups work fine but we have suddenly found out we can't restore anything:

05/12/2011 15:27:27 - end Restore; elapsed time 0:00:25
the restore failed to recover the requested files (5)

2 problems I see here.  First it doesn't even appear to be trying to get any data, it fails immediately.  Two, there is NO FT media server so why is it calling for TRANSPORT?  This is a master/media, there are no FT or SAN clients.  I'm stumped on this one as backups are fine.

Also the task progress log gives me the following: "no data in archive"
