Hi
I am having other
problems now where I have attempted to use vxrestore and restored back most of
the system. However, there appear to be some files missing so I am having to use
amrecover to restore certain directories in /usr/local on my HPUX
machine
I am using my July
full backup tape which was successful but amrecover keeps me for the last full
backup tape (Fri3.1) which is a corrupt tape. Also I have noticed that when I
load the July tape and set it to the correct directory to restore, on the client
when I do a listing of whats on the July tape, its giving me the date of last
Friday (Fri3.1) WHY?????
It should be giving
me the date of the July full backup.
How can I force
amrecover to read off the correct tape and not ask me to load
Fri3.1????
