I have recently used amrestore to get an entire level 0 partition/disk
off of an amanda tape and onto disk on a Redhat Linux box. I'm trying to
use restore to get files out of this large amrestore file. When using
restore on this file, it will read the file, create all the directories
from the backup, but when it goes to restore the files into the
directories it just created, I receive a checksum error. My first
thoughts is that I had a bad archive. I ran a test by doing a "restore
tvf <amrestore_file>". When I just use restore to list, it can read thru
the entire file and I see everything on the backups, including what I'm
after. As soon as I try to extract the files, I can extract the
directories, but no files...just a checksum error. I tried a completely
separate backup and had the exact same results, so unless I have 2 bad
backups (possible but unlikely), there is something I need to change in
order to get the files out of this backup file.
Any help would be **greatly** appreciated.
Thanks,
