Hi:

See my response in your first thread:

You can extract the index built at the beginning or the 'fbackup' session ('frecover -I' ...) or read the tape in a nonrecovery mode and list the actual files on the tape ('frecover -Nv ...').

I want to extract the file list that i have backup , my statement is
??? frecover -x -N -vf /dev/rmt/0m > backuplog ??? , but cannot extract the output to the backuplog, how to solve it?

Hi,The command that gives you a complete index over what is
on the tape is as follows:

/etc/frecover -f /dev/rmt/0m -N -v -r > /tmp/tape.indx 2>&1

This will read the whole tape and may take some time.
