The unix utility “dd” can get a lot of stuff off of tapes.  You just have to learn how to forward to each header and then tar stuff off.

It is just a tar file.

You could find the tape file # and position with mt and cat the file out.

I have not tried to recover an incomplete tar file, but I am sure there are tools out there.

NetBackup 6.5: Phase 2 import stops as fragment 1 is no more available:

 

INF - Skipping backup id (backup_id), there is no fragment 1

INF - Found no images matching the selection criteria that were ready for phase 2 import.

 

Is there any way to get data from fragment 2?

 

Any help would be much appreciated.
