Hi, so now amrecover works as far as switching the tape is concerned, but i am still unable to recover files :(. here's the output:
amrecover> extract Extracting files using tape drive /dev/nst0 on host db1. The following tapes are needed: DailySet1017 Restoring files into directory /tmp Continue [?/Y/n]? y Extracting files using tape drive /dev/nst0 on host db1. Load tape DailySet1017 now Continue [?/Y/n/s/t]? y EOF, check amidxtaped.<timestamp>.debug file on db1. amrecover: short block 0 bytes UNKNOWN file amrecover: Can't read file header extract_list - child returned non-zero status: 1 Continue [?/Y/n/r]? y ok, so i'm checking the debug files that it told me to look at, but i don't see any errors. Here's the last few lines of the log: amindexd: time 29.050: < 200 Opaque list of /usr/bin amindexd: time 38.900: > TAPE amindexd: time 38.900: < 200 /dev/nst0 that last thing is the 'ls' command i performed, and then there is no errors or anything (there should be...that's where i did the 'extract' command). any tips? thanks, Cameron Matheson
