As a further update, doing an amrestore where the name of the host is invalid, eg "amrestore /dev/nst0 frodo" results in: amrestore: 0: skipping start of tape: date 20020511 label full14 amrestore: 1: skipping snoopy.mcs.drexel.edu._export_home__local.20020511.0 amrestore: 2: skipping snoopy.mcs.drexel.edu._var.20020511.0 amrestore: 3: skipping snoopy.mcs.drexel.edu._tmp.20020511.0 amrestore: 4: skipping snoopy.mcs.drexel.edu._usr_src.20020511.0 amrestore: 5: skipping snoopy.mcs.drexel.edu._.20020511.0 amrestore: 6: skipping snoopy.mcs.drexel.edu._usr_local.20020511.0 amrestore: 7: skipping snoopy.mcs.drexel.edu._export_ext__raid.20020511.0 amrestore: 8: reached end of tape: date 20020511 So, it is capable of seeing every tar file on the tape. But why oh why does it restore them all to "snoopy.mcs.drexel.edu._export_home__local.20020511.0"?
