Hi,
I ran a big restore last night, and got a "Backup failed" error: "The backup is too large for the backup disk." It took me a while to realize that it probably has nothing to do with the restore; TM doesn't seem to care for its own restores, and I think it was trying to backup while restoring, or treat the restored files as a terabyte of new data.
Looking at the backupd Console log entries, there is no indication that I ever ran an 11-hour restore. I think it completed successfully, but is there no way to get a confirmation from the software??
