I've been using the virtual tape feature for a while, but we started to run low on disk space, so I carved up a new partition on the SAN and used the opportunity to upgrade the machine to RHEL5. I kept my old virtual tape partition and backed up all my bacula files in case anything happened while I was in the process of upgrading.
Now that I've got the new system up and running, someone has asked for a file that apparently exists only on that old virtual tape drive. Even if I wanted to dump my new production install, I've discovered that I made some kind of mistake during my bacula backup and don't have the original config files. So, what I'm wondering is if there is a way to import and restore from a batch of virtual tape files. I believe I've read that this is possible with real tape, though it may take a long time. Can someone give me a hint on how I might do this? I don't suppose those files are in a format that I could just dump with tar or cpio? That would be the easiest solution, it seems. Thanks!
