continue the fbackup session

Good Morning!

I was doing the fbackup (logged in via telnet remotely) when it finished the volume 1 and was asking for the tape 2 and was waiting on the "Y" or "N" response, when i lost the connection (on my laptop) Is there a way i can fire the same fbackup session so that i could continue on the volume 2 instead of me doing the volume 1 backup all over again? Please advise!

Thanks

Mike

Re: continue the fbackup session

Not on an interactive session. You have to kill the fbackup process and run it all over again.

There is a way to trigger fbackup into using a second tape but the fbackup session must be started up with that option.
