It all depends on the format of the files on tape.

Hope this helps!

Hi Torsten,

Thank you for your feedback.

I'm checking which format we are using, but in the meantime, could you please tell me how many options are available, or the most common options.

Regards,

Marcos

It really depends ... for tar probably each other tar works, same for cpio maybe, for fbackup you will need fbackup, this means HP-UX again, for data protector you need a running data-protector ... for ignite tar may work too.

 

So you need what tool was used to write the data onto tape.


Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
