# frecover -x -N -f /dev/rmt/0mn

frecover(5424): expected volume 1, and got 2
frecover(5433): Do you wish to continue using this volume? (^[yY]/^[nN]) n
frecover(5412): Do you wish to try to salvage this volume? (^[yY]/^[nN]) n

Re: fbackup error

Hi Yogi,

I think you are using a no-rewind tape device. Can you try as given in the following example.I saw this example from some online doc.

frecover -f /dev/rmt/c?d?t?BEST -v -I /tmp

Re: fbackup error

Hi,

you can't verify the 2nd tape on its own. Frecover should ask the next tape when it reaches the end of the first tape.
