At first I thought the script was freezing because I ran it for 25 minutes and it didn't do anything. I thought it was freezing up. I finally added "STATS = 1" to the script because I needed to see when the script completed at 1% intervals. It turns out that the database I was restoring was so big (60+ GBs) that the script ran for nearly 2 hours. Thanks again! -Jody Thanks Pinal , this script worked for me.

I finally added “STATS = 1″ to the script because I needed to see when the script completed at 1% intervals. It turns out that the database I was restoring was so big (60+ GBs) that the script ran for nearly 2 hours.

Thanks again!
