In regard to: Re: [Networker] Speed up scanning on numerous tapes...:
I also wasn't totally accurate in my followup comment (in a hurry, aren't
we always? :-) Both browse and retention policies have long expired on
all of these tapes, but since the tapes have not been recycled, the
savesets themselves are still visible via mminfo. So, I could do a saveset
recovery, but not browse any individual files.
If anyone knows of any shortcuts to a browseable file index, I'm all
ears... :-\
You don't say whether the tapes contain index backups. If they do,
nsrck -L7 might be worth a look.
