Express HD - How do I rebuild the catalog file in Express HD 2.x?
Legacy
Steps for rebuilding the catalog file:
-
Launch Retrospect HD by double-clicking the taskbar icon or using Start >Programs> EMC Retrospect > Retrospect HD 2.0.
-
Verify the number of Restore Points listed on the main page. If there are no Restore Points listed or you feel that there should be more Restore Points showing a catalog rebuild is needed.
-
Use My Computer to browse to the location where a backup was stored. This will normally be on the destination drive at the time of the backup. Note: If the backup was stored on a network shared volume, the shared volume must be mapped into My Computer, pointing to the Retrospect Restore Points folder. Then, open the /Retrospect Restore Points/ folder. If the backup was stored on an external device such as an external hard drive, then the RestorePoint.rbc file must be deleted. If the backup was stored on a network shared volume (like the video below shows), then the computername.rbc file must be deleted. Note: In the case of the video the computer name is TS-LT-MICHAEL, therefore, the catalog file will be called TS-LT-MICHAEL.rbc.
-
Right click and delete the catalog file.
