However I don't know how to get this off the tape into a usable format.
The first 32K block of the file on tape contains the instructions.
Have you read:
http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Restoring_files
Especially the secion about restoring with "amrestore".
The windows tar is compatible with gnutar, so to restore on the
server itself, just use gnutar.
It was generated from the DLE
orinoco.deanst.rroom.net //tlswindev1.deanst.rroom.net/e$
comp-root-tar-win
And from amanda.conf
define dumptype comp-root-tar-win {
root-tar
comment "Root partitions with compression"
compress client fast
index
#exclude list "/var/lib/amanda/exclusions.txt"
}
I need to restore it to the amanda server as I'm still trying to
reinstall 'tlswindev1' after its only disk (yes, I know, when its
replaced I'll be insisting on RAID) died last night, and I can't afford
the network traffic (the dump to tape should be about 30GB).
Something like this should work (untested):
# cd /space/tmp # somewhere with enough free diskspace
# mt -t /dev/st0 rewind # fill in your tape device
# amrestore -p /dev/nst0 orinoco.deanst.rroom.net
