AFAIK, and i'm not an arcserve-guru...;-), arcserve uses a propietary format to store the data onto tape.
So you will have to install arcserve to restore from this tpes.
I'm not aware of any other tool to restore from these tapes.

Hi,
This might be not the right place to post this question but I had no other clue.
How do I restore a full ArcServe tape (some backup utility) under linux without having ArcServe installed?
Or at least, how can I see if there is something on a tape or not? I tried to use amrestore (and obviously didn't work since it wasn't an Amanda tape) and restore gives an error like: restore: Tape read orror on the first record.
Thank you for your support.
Regards, Iulian
