Re: Amanda and Full metal restore

Thanks for the advice, I did put the wrong command in the last e-mail,
I used typed amrestore, rather than amrecover.
After looking through the man pages for amrestore and a bit of messing
around, I have managed to get it to restore correctly (as you said :))
The only thing I'm not sure on is the -f option to amrestore
The man page states:
-f Do a rewind followed by a fsf <fileno> ... restore an image.
I cannot work out what this represents (I'm sure it's obvious :))
I stabbed at it and just entered 1 and it seems to work ok.
# cd /tmp/restore
# amrestore -p -f 1 file:/path/to/tape/tape01 | tar -xpGvf - .
Thanks for the help
Mark
