Restore from backup

David Greenhow — Thu, 03 Feb 2005 03:12:38 GMT

I am trying to restore data from tape to a different location within our EVA 3000. Its restoring the data, but not all of the directories within.

For example i want to restore directory ONE from the tape and all its subdirectories without all the /DEV /USR (etc) main directories before it.

Any ideas?

Is it tar?

Hi,

# frecover -x -f -i /ONE

This should work.

See man frecover for more details on using frecover and the information about graph files in case you need it.

Hello David Greenhow

Let try with this command:
#frecover -f /dev/rmt/XX -i /mount_point -xv
