Default ontape -r and CKPT REQ

Hello,

I am trying to do a cold restore for all DBSpaces from one Server to
another(both Linux 7.0). I did an
ontape -r
I mounted the tape
Continue restore?(Y/N) Y
Do you want to backup the logs?(Y/N) N

The first Checkpoints in online.log were made, but then onstat - gives
Fast Recovery(CKPT REQ) and no more Checkpoint is done. I waited more
than 1 hour. The database is about 2Gb.
Is there anything I can do to finish the restore?

Regards
Fredo David

Did the ontape command return to the command line?

Then in another session run 'onstat -D'. this shows the dbspace
status and any disk activity.
