Hello, I have an HP35480A (sa0) tape drive using 90m tapes and I have a number of machines that I need to backup every night on this tape. Not whole file systems, just separate trees on each machine. Is there a way to put tars of these trees on the same tape one after the other and then access and recover them sequencialy? If I do for example: mt rewind mt fsf 1 tar cvz /bin tar cvz /sbin tar xvz /dev/nrsa0 I would only be able to recover the last tar archive writen on the tape. It seems like they are taped one over the other. any help appreciate. thank you. veaceslav.
