NAME
read_tape - Reads volume dumps from a backup tape to a fileSYNOPSIS
read_tape -tape <tape device>-restore <# of volumes to restore>
-skip <# of volumes to skip>
-file <filename> [-scan] [-noask] [-label]
[-vheaders] [-verbose] [-help]
DESCRIPTION
read_tape reads an OpenAFS backup tape and prompts for each dump file to save. This command does not require any OpenAFS infrastructure. This command does not need an OpenAFS client or server to be available, which is not the case with the backup(8) command.The dump files will be named for the Read/Write name of the volume restored. After saving each dump file, vos restore or restorevol can be used to restore the volume into AFS and non-AFS space respectively.
read_tape reads the tape while skipping the specified number of volumes. After that, it restores the specified number of volumes. read_tape doesn't rewind the tape so that it may be used multiple times in succession.
