List, OS RedHat 7.3 Oeacle 8.1.7 rel3 I have had a disk failure on my test box and a datafile needs to be recovered from my tape backup. The tape contains 6 large datafiles and I get errors after reading the first one. Does anyone know the linux FTP option to --ignore-read-errors? The man command does not list it. I feel that there might be a bad section of tape and I would like to skip it until the next file header. I am in the process of exporting the data by month from the production server to reload into a recreated datafile if I can't get the tape to work. I would prefer to use the tape restore because the data needed is 3 GIG and will take a long time to exp/imp. I guess this is what you get when you use scrounged equipment to make a test box to improve your knowledge. It also tests your backup/restore equipment.
