    If Wait for Tape Mounts for File Information option is not selected on the Restore Database or Restore Groups/Files panel of the Data Protection for SQL GUI, a Legacy restore operation might fail with the following error message:

    File ‘<name>’ cannot be restored to ‘<file name>’. Use WITH MOVE to identify a valid location for the file. Problems were identified while planning for the RESTORE statement. Previous messages provide details. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally. Changed database context to ‘master’. (HRESULT:0x80131501)

    To work around this issue, select the Wait for Tape Mounts for File Information option and refresh the tree view by clicking on the Refresh Tree View button before specifying relocation parameters in the Relocate dialog box. This is a known problem currently under investigation (36454).
