crobles Posted May 8, 2023 Report Share Posted May 8, 2023 Is there a way to have Retrospect show me which tapes will be needed to perform a restore before it starts the process? Right now it just asks me to load X tape when it needs it, but Id like to load my Quantum library with all the tapes it needs before hand.

Lennart_T Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 That has been a feature request for a long time, but I don't think it has been fulfilled yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted May 11, 2023 Report Share Posted May 11, 2023 This is a feature already. You can export a csv file that shows the tape name for every file in the snapshot. Feature has been available since version 17. It's called Restore Preflight. Export is found in configure>backup sets>snapshots 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crobles Posted June 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2023 Thanks, that's helpful but that's quite a lengthy manual process. I was hoping it could just prompt me. "You will need Tapes X, X and X to complete this restore". If I'm restoring lots of files from lots of different folders this is an obnoxious process to have to go through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
