Re: Restore files
Although in of the threads it says:
# mt -f /dev/rmt/1mn rew
# mt -f /dev/rmt/1mn fsf 1
# tar -tvf /dev/rmt/1mn
Please note that this works for ustar format archives only on PA systems and older Itanium tapes. If you do not want to determine what the format of the archive is use the pax command instead of tar. For newer format Itanium tapes uses fsf 23 instead of fsf 1.
Also note that the archive on the tape is path relative not absolute so be careful with your current working directory from where you recover the files from.
If you want to recover just a few files look at the -i option in pax where if you give it the exact names of the files in the archive you want to recover you can give them a new location to recover to, e.g.
# pax -ir ./etc/hosts -f /dev/rmt/1m
will prompt for where ./etc/hosts should be stored to and you might answer /tmp/hosts if you don't want to overwrite the existing file but need to see what was in the archive.
# mt -f /dev/rmt/1mn rew
# mt -f /dev/rmt/1mn fsf 1
# tar -tvf /dev/rmt/1mn
