Is anyone out there familiar with rbak?  I am trying to restore 
directory /local to an apollo SR9.704 system using the command
            rbak -dev ct1 -f 14 //a/local 
  Rbak successfully recovers those /local subdirectories and files 
stored at the beginning of tape-file 14, but about halfway through it 
aborts with the message
          ?(rbak) (heap_$get) Heap table full.
  We have tried rebooting, using a different backup tape, logging on 
under different accounts, asking only for specific subdirectories from
the second half of file 14, increasing the free disc space and free
memory, etc, but still we can't get past that halfway point.
  Rbak has no problems, however, producing an index of file 14 - the 
stuff is all there.
  Does anyone know what is happening here?  Could it be lack of free
memory or disc space (in spite of the changes we tried)?  Is there any
way to correct the problem?  To get around it?
  Thanks in advance.....
