Hi,
AFAIK, and i'm not an arcserve-guru...;-), arcserve uses a propietary

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.

down into manageable chunks and use strings and od commands such as
od -c and hex editors to try to make some sense of the

DVDs are more suited to archival backups of a few GB where you plan to
