Using just:
amrestore /dev/nst0 webserver04

Everything seems to complete with no visible errors.
How do I make sure that 'webserver04' /dev/sda3 (the partition I backed up)
has now been restored?!

How do I use amrestore properly, although I've looked at the documentation
and various sites, I seem to have peculiar things happen when I attempt a
restore.

My server with tape drive is 'admin01' and my client to backup is
'webserver04'.

Should I be using:

amrestore -p /dev/nst0 webserver04
or 
amrestore /dev/nst0 webserver04

I seem to have no console feed back when I use the -p flag.
