martijn@bake.nl Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Hello, after working year with success with Retrospect and LTO systems. I'm running in to a problem at the moment. I need to restore some data from a tape, but Retrospect does'nt see the complete index on the tape. When I rebuild the catalogfile it only does about 77 GB of the 500+GB's it has on it. Is there a way, I can completely rebuild the file, so I can restore the data? Kind regards, Martijn van Moock 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lennart_T Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 It asks for an other set. But it does'nt find one. I do not think it asks for another set. It might ask for another tape and you have to manually point it out (in the tape drive). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might ask for another tape and you have to manually point it out (in the tape drive). Yes it asks for another tape (sorry). But still it doesn't scan the complete tape. Is there a way it could find all the data on the disk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martijn@bake.nl Posted October 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Are you sure you don't see any error message anywhere? Yes, it only asks for other tapes. Name of the set is LTO040, than it asks for LTO040-1. That one does'nt exist, then for LTO040-2 that one does it's 77GB (about). Than for LTO040-3 from here it does'nt exist. However, when i made the backup i printed the content log, that shows that there're more file on the tape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lennart_T Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 I guess it reads only the last backup for each source, so the older backups for the same source isn't read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think so two. But how could the program scan the whole LTO? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
