Find tape backup files in the HP Unix server

[victorgo]

Hi,
Is anybody knows how to issue command to find the tape backup files(like dir for DOS command) in the HP Unix server.

Thanks.

Hi

It would depend on the backup method used to write the tape.

For fbackup,
#frecover -I /tmp/index-f /dev/dsk/*m

For tar
#tar tv /dev/dsk/*m

For cpio
#cpio -t < /dev/rmt/*m
(Check this I can't remember if you need -it)
