Here is the scenario: Basically every night I backup my mksysb, XXX Volume group, and YYY Volume group all to one tape using this command #mksysb -ie /dev/rmt0.1 #savevg -i -f /dev/rmt0.1 XXXvg #savevg -i -f /dev/rmt0.1 YYYvg How do I access data that I need to restore from the XXXvg?? I tried using the #restorevgfiles -f /dev/rmt0 command and it returns saying that the file is not in an archive format. Any help would be deeply appreciated.
