Thanks everyone for your suggestions and comments.  The problem from my
perspective was that I had already done 4 successful restores from old to
new server.  The SA's added a new tape drive and assured me that everything
was same.  Obviously, it wasn't.  I was the one who discovered that the
bp.conf had been changed AFTER my last successful test restore.  No one
could tell me what it looked like before or what else might have been
changed.  We're having a post-mortem today and I will be bringing up the
subject of lack of proper notification of changes and proper testing.  Also
of concern to me is the lack of Veritas support.

Thanks again.  The disk backup/restore worked beautifully, as I knew it
would, and we have been up and running since 3:00am Monday.

Sandy
