Hi,
I took database full backup and want to restore it on other server machine in order to have DB mirroring.
On second machine i create database and try to restore database from backup file. i got following error message :

Restore failed for Server 'MSSQLSERVER'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoExtended)
------------------------------
Program Location:

at Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Restore.SqlRestore(Server srv)
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.SqlManagerUI.SqlRestoreDatabaseOptions.RunRestore()

===================================

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: RESTORE detected an error on page (30976:1912628480) in database "MYdatabase" as read from the backup set.
(Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)

i tried to verify backupfile and got following error

RESTORE verifyonly FROM DISK='C:\Backup\Mydatabasefullbackup.bak';

Error:
Msg 3189, Level 16, State 1, Line 4
Damage to the backup set was detected.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 4
VERIFY DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

Your backup file is corrupted. You'll need to get an undamaged backup file in order to restore it.

As 'Tara Kizer' is already suggested that your backup file is get corrupted. RESTORE VERIFYONLY is not a 100% verification, it only does what it can do, and what you gave it to work with. So, you should go back to the source server and perform DBCC CHECKDB to see if the corruption exists at the source.

Did you check?

DBCC CHECKDB ('XXX') WITH NO_INFOMSGS, ALL_ERRORMSGS;

You should also check Paul's Article. In this article, he explained step by step procedure to handle this error: http://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/paul/post/Example-20002005-corrupt-databases-and-some-more-info-on-backup-restore-page-checksums-and-IO-errors.aspx
