Apologizes for the post because i don't give enough
info.
Here is.
I have make backup on two different tapes say tape A
and B from server_one.
A is holding the full backup and B the incremental
one.

want to restore those data ?
What must i do to get all my data(full+incremental)
restore on that server ?
