Hi,
need to recover a storage volume and the amanda index is missing. There seems to be lots of data on the tape for the volume.

Is it possible to build an amanda index from the tape? I used tar for the backup.

I've got a file listing of whats on the tape by doing:

amrestore -f12 -p /dev/st0 brokenserver /media/disk | tar tvf - > list.tar

Can I use the listing as the index or is there a neat amanda command to build the index properly?

Thanks

Happy Amanda User
