restore backup
I need help trying to restore file/files from my tape backup. When i run flexbackup -list i get the following.
| Logging output to "flexbackup.list.200606161103.log" Reading from CURRENT TAPE POSITION |------------------------------------------------------------ At block 0. |------------------------------------------------------------ | buffer -m 10m -p 75 -s 10k -t -u 100 -i "/dev/nst0" | gzip -dq | tar \ | --list --totals --verbose --sparse -b 20 -B --file - | ------------------------------------------------------------ Kilobytes Out 10 gzip: stdin: not in gzip format |------------------------------------------------------------ At block 2. |------------------------------------------------------------ Can anyone guide me in the right direction? thanks |
Try:
flexbackup -toc |
flexbackup -toc
Ok so I have been able to display my table of contents.
File Contents (tape index 200606052345) --------------------------------------------- 0 <tape index key> 1 level 5 /home Mon Jun 05 23:45:16 2006 tar+gzip from pways-fs2 2 level 5 /share Tue Jun 06 04:02:04 2006 tar+gzip from pways-fs2 3 level 5 /etc/backup/mysql Tue Jun 06 06:12:57 2006 tar+gzip from pways-fs2 My understanding is that I have three locations that are getting backup up. /home /share and /etc/backup/mysql. Is this correct? So if I want to restore a single file in the /home directory how do I find the file and extract it? I have played around with flexbackup -list -num 1 but not really sure what that is doing. So a sample file that I am trying to restore is in the /home/nathan/license.rtf. How do I reach in and just grab that file. thanks |
