frecover doubt

Hi,

Is there any option to see the tape contents after a 'fbackup' using fbackup/frecover command.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

You could try frecover -I /tmp/tapecontent

check man frecover:
-I path The index on the current volume is extracted from the
backup media and is written to path.

Regards,

Gideon

Hi Manu,

Use SAM:

#SAM
-> Backup and Recovery -> Interactive Backup and Recovery -> (Select Tape Device) -> Action -> Get List of Files on Device

Best Regards,

Eric

You can also go through a dummy run of the restore.

frecover -xvN -f -i

This will go through the process of recovering the files from the tape without actually writing them.
