[Veritas-bu] Reading a tape!
2002-07-09 14:14:58
Hi All,
I am trying to dump a tape to lacal drive and read the files (My file is SQL
DB file). In UNIX I just can dump the tape using "tar" command or:
Mount the tape.
$ tpreq -ev MediaID -d dlt -p Pool -f /tmp/mytape
We can reference /tmp/mytape as the tape device.
$mt -f /tmp/mytape rewind
now read the tape
cd /where_we_want_to_read_tape_to
cpio -idvum < /tmp/tape
Tape was read. Now rewind then tell Media Manager we've finished with it and
ask for it to be unmounted
$mt -f /tmp/mytape rewind
$tpunmount> /tmp/mytape
How can I do that in W2K?
Thx,
Adam
