So I write the first dump like this:
# dump -0u -b 126 -d 141000 -s 11500 -L hda1 -f /dev/nst0 /dev/hda1
then:
# dump -0u -b 126 -d 141000 -s 11500 -L hda5 -f /dev/nst0 /dev/hda5
then rewind it? Is this needed? I am just going to backup the partitions and
then change the tape for the next day. I suppose so, so I would rewind it
like this:
# mt -f /dev/st0 rewind
then how to restore files from the second dump?
# restore -i ?
Seems that I can only access the first dump, and non after that??
Thanks for your help.
