Hi:

# frecover -V /tmp/volhdr -f /dev/rmt/0m

The contents of /tmp/volhdr will give you want you seek. See the man pages of 'frecover' for more information.

If say the device is /dev/rmt/0m ..

# frecover -V /tmp/tape-info -f /dev/rmt/0m

Try this:

# grep Time /tmp/header

Hi (again):

You should offer the same points you gave me to SK and Shiju, since their answers are the same as mine and were clearly posted (or certainly composed) within the same time as mine. Thanks!
