Hi
From "How to restore files and filegroups over existing files (Enterprise
Manager)" in BOL
Under Recovery completion state, do one of the following:
a.. Click Leave database operational. No additional transaction logs can
be restored if no further transaction log backups are to be applied.
b.. Click Leave database nonoperational, but able to restore additional
transaction logs if another transaction log backup is to be applied
It seems that the log file backup was not taken before the filegroup backup.
If you were not going to restore the logs then the 'Leave database
operational' should be checked.
