View Backup Content
I have a backup tape that backup some very important database for my company. But I don't know what method used to backup that data. Beacause it is backup from other people and he already leave to company. When I try to use SAM --> Backup and Recovery --> Interactive Backup and Recovery --> Get list of files on devices --> It appear below error message:
Getting list of files...
frecover(2105): did not find expected file marker
frecover(5409): unable to read volume header
frecover(5418): not an fbackup volume; unable to read volume header
frecover(2105): did not find expected file marker
frecover(5412): Do you wish to try to salvage this volume? (^[yY]/^[nN])
Dear all, any idea?

Re: View Backup Content
What do you backup with now? Try using that to read the tape.
Try tar,
This will read the tape, but not restore.
mt -t /dev/rmt/0m rewind
tar -tvf /dev/rmt/0m
Where /dev/rmt/0m is your tape device.
HTH,
Dave.

Re: View Backup Content
Do you have omniback installed? Omniback does a very good job of identifying the media (e.g. tar, fbackup, cpio etc).
If not, you can try a few of the common backup utilities to try reading a listing from the tape using tar, gtar, dump, cpio etc.
Hope this helps. Regards.

Re: View Backup Content
Could there be any cron job for the backup? Or script in ~root?
Regards,

frecover -i Option to see whether you can see the list of files on the tape
check this link for one of the previous posts.

check for this patch.This is the fbackup/frecover patch.
PHCO_23861
check whether you have inserted the right tape.If the tape is new or the backup was taken using tar,cpio and when you use frecover you get this error.
Thanks
