Hi

Have a look at the -X (upper case) option for frecover

-X

Recover files relative to the current working directory. Normally frecover recovers files to their absolute path name.

You need to use the '-X' option to frecover.

# cd /back05_new
# frecover -X -f /dev/rmt/0mn -i /back05
and whatever other options you need

# man frecover
for more details

Create the directory /back05_new
change to it
issue frecover -X (see man page)

the -X tells frecover to restore relative to the current working directory

frecover -xvf /dev/rmt/0m
(restore entire tape to originating directory
structure)

frecover -xovf /dev/rmt/0m
(restore entire tape to originating directory structure and overwrite any existing files)

(restore entire tape to /tmp originating directory structure will be overwritten)
cd /tmp
frecover -xXvf /dev/rmt/0m

hope this helps,
