This is for 2 filesystems but when I run ufsrestore........

# ufsrestore i /dev/rmt/0
ufsrestore > what
Dump date: Tue Oct 23 14:19:40 2007
Dumped from: the epoch
Level 9 dump of /apps on gambler:/dev/dsk/c1t9d0s3
Label: none
ufsrestore > quit


It only shows one filesystem. It should have two....

/dev/dsk/c1t9d0s3
/dev/dsk/c1t9d0s0

What am I doing wrong Smilie

if you use /dev/rmt/0 it will rewind the tape, so you are back on the first dump... you will have to use the mt (man mt(1)) command to forward to the next dump....

# ufsrestore i /dev/rmt/0
...c1t9d0s3...

# mt fsf 1
# ufsrestore i /dev/rmt/0n <--- (where "n" is for No rewind]
...c1t9d0s0...

#mt -f /dev/rmt/0 rewind
#ufsrestore i /dev/rmt/0
ufsrestore > what
Dump date: Tue Oct 23 14:19:40 2007
Dumped from: the epoch
Level 9 dump of /apps on gambler:/dev/dsk/c1t9d0s3
Label: none
ufsrestore > quit

#mt fsf 1
#ufsrestore i /dev/rmt/0n
open: No such file or directory
cannot open symbol table file ./restoresymtable
