jakezuckerberg Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 How do I find out what version of retrospect was used on a tape? I can read the title of the tape while trying to rebuild a catalog but it will not give me the directories on the tape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twickland Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 (edited) I can read the title of the tape while trying to rebuild a catalog but it will not give me the directories on the tape It's not clear what you're doing here or what you mean by "not giving you the directories." You might start by giving us the version of Retrospect you're using. OS version and hardware would also be helpful. Then, describe in detail what steps you're following in your attempted rebuild. Retrospect 6.1 should be able to read any earlier tapes but in practice it sometimes chokes on early file versions. Retrospect 6.0 can have trouble with tapes created in 6.0 but later written to by 6.1. Retrospect 5.1 may be better able to handle an early version tape. It may be downloaded here. I believe your 6.x license code should also work with 5.1. Edited November 15, 2010 by Guest Add more information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
