>From the 'volumeuseage' table, you can identify which offsite tapes
contain the data for that node. However, as i understand it, you cannot
determine which have the latest backups on them.

We done this last week for a node, identified 43 offsite LTO3 tapes that
had the data for a node, then manually loaded them into the offsite
library, ran the restore to the latest versions (13 million files) and
let it run. Takes a while, but it's the only way i know

Is it possible to get a list of the OFFSITE tapes required to restore a
specified node to the *latest* backup?

Many Thanks,
