There are companies that provide this service.  There are no utilities I am
aware of to do the 'conversion'.  The service these companies provide is the
ability to restore the data and then backup with NBU.  And it isn't terribly
inexpensive.

Thanks Steve
Unfortunately we don't in what format  Omniback write to a tape, as far as
Veritas Netbackup uses GNU TAR format. Your idae is okay but it takes ages
to do that (restore and backup again)!

any other suggestoin.



Thanks,

Adam.
