Re: list contents of a tape
# frecovery -I /tmp/tape_list -f /dev/rmt/1m
The -I option lists the index file on the tape.
# man frecover
for more information.

Re: list contents of a tape
if you want to have the list of the content of your tape, just use the following sintax:
/usr/sbin/frecover -f $TAPE -I $I/DDS.indice
$TAPE your tape 1m
$I your directory
DDS.indice the name of the file
This will recover the index of what was backed-up.
HTH,
Massimo

SolutionYou've got 2 main options here:
1) frecover -I /home/xxxxxx/temp -f /dev/rmt/1m will give you the index from the tape - this is a list of files *intended* to be backed up, and can be read quickly off the tape. Files that change between the time the index was created and the backup actually got round to them won't be on the tape.
2) frecover -rNvf /dev/rmt/1m 2> /home/xxxxxx/temp will read the whole backup and list each file name on the tape. The 2 is needed as the list of files is written to stderr rather than stdout.
regards,
Darren

Re: list contents of a tape
# frecover -I /tmp/frecover_list -f /dev/rmt/1m
Use with -v for verbose option. The command which you used is for checking the data on tape without doing an actual recover (-N option). Read man pages for more information.

Re: list contents of a tape
Try the following
frecovery -I /tmp/fbackup-list -f /dev/rmt/1m
man frecover for more information.
This is from the man page
-I path The index on the current volume is extracted from the backup media and is written to path.

DR
