We upgraded from backup software Arcserve 6.0 to Arcserve 7.0. It seems running OK now. However, we seem to lose the old database from Arcserve 6.0 version. We only see Arcserve 7.0 backup media database. How can I get back the backup media database from Arcserve 6.0 to Arcserve 7.0 so that I can restore old tapes data from version 6.0? Thanks

Arcserve has never been good at backward compatability. You will have to create a new database and merge tapes when needed.

Thank you for your reply. How can I create a new database and merge tapes when needed. Can you give me some instructions. Thank you.

You will have to merge that tape that you wish to install into the Arcserve 7 database. If this seems to combersome then you may create a junk directory and restore the Arcserve 6 tape to this directory. This you must do from the server console.
