Hi,
I would like to view the files that are on backup tape. The tape is mounted on a VMS Alpha 1200 machine.
The backup is done automatically, but I cannot find any instruction on how I could see the content and date of the tape.
Thanks in advance.
Louis
 
Louis,

Its pretty simple.

$ BACKUP/LIST your_saveset_file/SAVE_SET

Substitute "your_saveset_file" with whatever tape drive and file that you're looking at. Wildcards will work also ("tape:*.*").

See "$ HELP BACKUP_Command" for further instructions.
