make_recovery tape listing

Joe Profaizer — Mon, 27 Aug 2001 12:20:16 GMT

I copied some files from one mount pt. to a new one, then deleted the source mt. pt. I don't think the permissions of the files stayed the same during the copy, so I need a listing of my last make_recovery tape of those respective files and their permissions. How do I list the files from the tape and see their permissions?

Thanks,

..Joe

Hi
To check the contents of your ignite tape do

# mt -t /dev/rmt/0mn fsf 1

// This above jumps over the boot part

# tar -tvf /dev/rmt/0m > file.lst

This will list the tape contents into a file.

Hope this helps

Hi,

1. Skip the lif area by :

#mt -f /dev/rmt/#mn fsf 1

2. List the catalog from the Ignite-UX tape :

#tar -tvf /dev/rmt/#m

Notice :

"#" in the avove examples stands for the tape number ( could be 0, 1, 2 or .... ).
