Hi All, I've got backups up and running now, but have a question about restore, As suggested by Roger (And lots of help by him, many thanks), I've setup a restore using the following (the first line his suggestion to set the tape up). Then the afio, but the problem is shown below. A lot of files show the broken pipe error, which I'm guessing is because the original file wasn't compressed when it was written, and now trying to uncompress isn't working on that file. once the restore finished, the file exists, but it has 0 bytes. Is there an extra flag/option to afio that I should be adding to fix this, or any ideas???!
mt -f /dev/nht0 fsf 1 afio -i -k -x -P bzip2 -Q -d -Z -v /dev/nht0 afio: "shares/misc/del/temp/temp/fax to kath re 1 cheviot way.doc": Broken pipe afio: "inentry xwait()": Exit 2 shares/misc/del/temp/temp/fax to kath re 1 cheviot way.doc -- uncompressed bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file. afio: "shares/misc/del/temp/temp/Fax.walter-univ.north 6.3.03..doc": Broken pipe afio: "inentry xwait()": Exit 2 shares/misc/del/temp/temp/Fax.walter-univ.north 6.3.03..doc -- uncompressed shares/misc/del/temp/temp/My Pictures/P1010032.JPG -- okay Info: shares/misc/del/temp/temp/Fax.walter-univ.north 6.3.03..doc being the file that i'm testing, as that exists normally, but when restored has 0 bytes due to the errors shown (I'm guessing). -- Andy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.acomm-hosting.co.uk/ Web Design from £200 Hosting from £80 and domains only £15 ADSL for £20 per month at http://tinyurl.com/iyej ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
