Is there any possibilty to restore backup taken with backupby file name to any other filesystem
Hi,

I have taken a backup of filesystem " /backup " by using backupby file name command on tape
Code:
Mount volume 1 on /dev/rmt0.
Press Enter to continue. Backing up to /dev/rmt0.
Cluster 51200 bytes (100 blocks).
Volume 1 on /dev/rmt0
a          0 /backup       
a        543 /backup/abc_log       
a        943699 /backup/xyz.log       
a     5677871104 /backup/Datafilemain.dmp       
a      33583343 /backup/Coredatafile1dmp.Z

Now I want to restore the contents of the above listed backup to some other filesytem for.eg. I want to restore it all the files in /new_backup.

How this can be accomplished? Any help would be appreciated.
