Backup Index

Hi all,

I am using Legato networker for my backups, I need to restore some data from 2001.
When doing an inventory on the tape is picks up the label but under pool it says "not in media index".
When doing: nsrck -t 01Jan2002 -L7 i get the following:
nsrck: checking index for '$client'
nsrck: The file index for client '$client' will be recovered.
nsrck: can't find a full index backup for '$client', will attempt to recover as much as possible
nsrck: The index recovery for '$client' failed.
nsrck: File index error: can't find index backups for '$client on server '$client'

How do recover the index from then so I can read the tapes?

Many thanks.

It looks as though the Date format is incorrect. Try Using:

# sudo nsrck -L7 -t (mm/dd/yy) (client server)
nsrck: checking index for '$server'
nsrck: The file index for client '$server' will be recovered.
nsrck: Recovering index savesets of '$server' from 'MASTER'
Recover completion time: Tue Sep 23 11:24:56 2003
nsrck: completed recovery of index for client '$server'

nsrck: /nsr/index/$server contains 1966002 records occupying 338 MB
