DB Restore error

  • I am getting error during DB Restore in SQL Server Management Studio.

    I have a .bak file.

    when I try to upload this back up file by browse

    System.Data.SQLClient.SQLError the media set has 2 media families but only 1 has been provided . All memebers must be provided.

    How do I solve this issue ?

  • You find the other half of the backup.

    That error means that the backup was striped across two files, either because two files were specified in the BACKUP DATABASE statement or because two files were listed in the destination in the backup dialog. The backup was striped across the two files with half of the backup in each. To restore you need both files.
