I have the problem of recovering 8 SLR tapes. All I know is that these were created with amanda. Now I tried to do an "amrestore /dev/nrsa0" which I think should restore all files to the current directory (I have 300GB free so this is correct). But all I get is the following: amrestore: WARNING: not at start of tape, file numbers will be offset And then it stops. Then I have to do a "mt rewind" before I can issue the next amrestore. I tested the SLR100 drive with tar and it's working like a charm. Any help appreciated Please reply directly, I'm not subscribed!
