[Bacula-users] Read tape written by other backup-software
2008-08-15 03:58:37
Hello list,
I just found some very old LTO1-tapes that were written years ago with
CA's ARCserve.
I have a compatible streamer somewhere that I could connect to a linux-box.
I was wondering, which information about those tapes I can retrieve with
btape (or other linux tools). It would be especially interesting to see
when the tapes were written and how much data is on the tape. I do not
need to actually restore any data, I was just curious what's on those tapes.
Is something like this even possible? I don't know whether there is a
standard for labels on tapes or if tapes contain something like a TOC
that can be read by any application.
Best regards, Nils
