Problem with restore command

[Javier Juarez]

Hi!
I need restore 3 tapes making on a Digital Server (DG/UX) I think that was made with the dump command, So, when I use the restore command to recover their content, I got the next message:
# restore r
Tape block size (512) is not a multiple of dump block size (1024)
#
Any tip??

Thanks.

The -b option specifies the block size.

Do a "man restore" for more detail.

Hi Rod!
- which integer sould I use with b argument?
- I tried with some, but I got the same message.
- I am using a HP-UX server to restore the tapes
- any key or argument seems works!!
- I can read and restore the first tape (1/3)with the cpio -itv < /dev/rmt/0m , there is a single file named level.backup_13702 which content is :
# more /tmp/level.backup_10372

dump2 -0 -u -i
-M video
-f /dev/rmt/0n
