Hi everyone,

I am having problem recovering files.  Luckily this is only test run.

Okay the problem is, everytime i run amrecover, after adding the file i want
to recover, i issue the extract command and this is the error message i
would get:


Extracting files using tape drive /dev/null on host localhost.
The following tapes are needed: DAILY02

Restoring files into directory /huge/tmp
Continue? [Y/n]:

Load tape DAILY02 now
Continue? [Y/n]:
EOF, check amidxtaped.debug file.
amrecover: short block 0 bytes
UNKNOWN file
amrecover: Can't read file header
extract_list - child returned non-zero status: 1


Here's what the amidxtaped.debug file has ti say:

amrestore: missing file header block
amrestore: WARNING: not at start of tape, file numbers will be offset
amrestore:   0: reached end of tape: date <8D>
amidxtaped: amrestore terminated normally with status: 1
Rewinding tape: rewinding tape: Inappropriate ioctl for device


I have attempted this many times and on different tapes too, but still same
error.  Can anybody help?

Thanks :)
