I am stuck in a very basic step of recovering with amrecover.I tried to execute amrecover with: (by the way I use file-driver)
amrecover -C test -d /var/lib/amanda/bande/t12 (where the data that I want to extract resides in)
(if i don't put -d /var/lib/amanda/bande/t12, it takes /dev/null as the default tape device. Am I doing the right thing here?)
and after running amrecover, I always have to change the disk to /home/noe (the dumped directoy) via: setdisk /home/noe
The only thing I wanted to do is simply to extract some files from this dump and as it is seen below at the first line, I have added Capture.png in to the list...
amrecover> add Capture.png
Added /ReportAmanda/Capture.png
amrecover> list
TAPE test12 LEVEL 0 DATE 2004-04-21
/ReportAmanda/Capture.pngstill

and that is the result, still I couldn't extract the files.
I would be glad,if you could help, thanx!
