Concurrent restores from the same backup file

Hi,

I’m trying to run 2 restores concurrently and getting this error message:

Error: Cannot open file "\\myserver\D$\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Backup\mydatabase.sbak". The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

I thought it was supposed to be fixed in 5.2:

Bug fixes and enhancements in 5.2:
.......................................................................................
- Ability to perform concurrent restores from the same file on different servers

Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks,
Vlad

    You can ignore this message. This problem seems to be fixed in 5.2. I just didn't realize that I would need to run "Upgrade server components" after 5.2 installation.

    Thanks.
