To check the content of the tape
# frecover -f /dev/rmt/0m -xNv

Restore all files and directories from tape:
# frecover -f /dev/rmt/0m -rv

Restore selected files and directories from tape:
# frecover -f /dev/rmt/0m -i /home/user1 â xv
# frecover -f /dev/rmt/0m -i /home/user2 -xv

Why not delete all the old files before doing
the restoration? "overwrite all the files"
is not a very precise description of
anything. Overwrite any existing files?
Retain or remove files not on the backup?
