IMHO, you can't do an "cross-platform recovery" with mmrecov. The official way
that Legato supports is to scan in all the tapes.
But there is a shorter way: use "ftp" to copy your media files between the two
servers. The requirement is, that both maschines are the same type "little
endian" or "big endian".

You also can try to edit your value in "control port" at the jukebox resource.
Just fill in the output from inquire.
If it won't work, you should delete and recreate

Don't forget to recover your client indexes - "nsrck -L 7". In your case it is
useless to recover the servers index
