Hi:

It is possible that your tape is bad. Try (if possible):

# mt -f /dev/rmt/0mn fsf 1
# tar -tvf /dev/rmt/0m

Regards!

Bad tape, bad drive, bad image.

Any of the above.

This looks old ...


What server is it?
What OS version is running?

Do you backup and restore to the *same* machine?

[Patrick Wallek]

What type of machine are you running the Ignite image on?

What type of machine are you restoring to?

The 'ISL booting hpux (;0):INSTALL' indicates a 32-bit install if I recall correctly. If you are backing up a 64-bit and trying to restore to a 32-bit, then that dog won't hunt.

Suspecting that you are trying to restore ignite image of a PARISC server to Itanium.
