I am trying to restore a file from a nightly tape backup (level 0). I load the tape into the drive, and fire up restore using: # restore -i -f /dev/st0 I then move to the directory where the file resides, and add it to my restore queue: restore > cd fo2 restore > ls restore > ls ./fo2 etc-06-02-2005.tar.gz logs-04-24-2005.tar.gz logs-09-12-2004.tar.gz homes-06-02-2005.tar.gz logs-05-01-2005.tar.gz logs-09-19-2004.tar.gz logs-01-02-2005.tar.gz logs-05-08-2005.tar.gz logs-09-26-2004.tar.gz logs-01-09-2005.tar.gz logs-05-15-2005.tar.gz logs-10-03-2004.tar.gz logs-01-16-2005.tar.gz logs-05-22-2005.tar.gz logs-10-10-2004.tar.gz logs-01-23-2005.tar.gz logs-05-29-2005.tar.gz logs-10-17-2004.tar.gz logs-01-30-2005.tar.gz logs-06-20-2004.tar.gz logs-10-24-2004.tar.gz logs-02-06-2005.tar.gz logs-06-27-2004.tar.gz logs-10-31-2004.tar.gz logs-02-13-2005.tar.gz logs-07-04-2004.tar.gz logs-11-07-2004.tar.gz logs-02-20-2005.tar.gz logs-07-11-2004.tar.gz logs-11-19-2004.tar.gz logs-02-27-2005.tar.gz logs-07-18-2004.tar.gz logs-11-21-2004.tar.gz logs-03-06-2005.tar.gz logs-07-25-2004.tar.gz logs-11-28-2004.tar.gz logs-03-13-2005.tar.gz logs-08-01-2004.tar.gz logs-12-05-2004.tar.gz logs-03-20-2005.tar.gz logs-08-08-2004.tar.gz logs-12-12-2004.tar.gz logs-03-27-2005.tar.gz logs-08-15-2004.tar.gz logs-12-19-2004.tar.gz logs-04-03-2005.tar.gz logs-08-22-2004.tar.gz logs-12-26-2004.tar.gz logs-04-10-2005.tar.gz logs-08-29-2004.tar.gz www-06-02-2005.tar.gz logs-04-17-2005.tar.gz logs-09-05-2004.tar.gz restore > add www-06-02-2005.tar.gz Then I extract: restore > extract You have not read any volumes yet.

Please help!! Are there any other messages from restore ? Was this a multi-volume dump ? Does restore -r (full restore) work ? Stelian. --=20 Stelian Pop <st...@po...> |
